Objective: The aim of this study was to assess dental and skeletal development in obese and normal-weight pediatric patients.
Materials and Methods: A sample of 65 patients (33 boys, 32 girls aged between 9 and 15) was selected. Dental panoramic radiographies were used for determining the dental age. Dental age was evaluated using the Demirjian Method scoring system. Skeletal age was measured by hand wrist radiographies using Greulich and Pyle method. The data were analyzed by Mann-Whitney U and Independent t-tests.
Results: There was no statistically significant difference between the obese and normal-weight groups in terms of dental age (P> 0.05). Skeletal age was significantly increased in obese boys (P <0.05); however, there was no significant difference in girls(P> 0.05).
Conclusions: Paediatric dentists should consider body mass index percentile when assessing growing children because it can affect dental and skeletal development.
Keywords: Dental Age, Skeletal Age, Obesity, Panoramic Radiography

Obez ve Normal Kilolu Çocuklarda Diş Yaşı ve İskelet Yaşının Araştırılması: Bir Arşiv çalışması
Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı,obez ve normal kilolu çocuk hastalarda, diş ve iskelet gelişimini değerlendirmektir.
Gereç ve Yöntem: 65 hastadan (9 -15 yaşları arasında, 33 oğlan, 32 kız) oluşan bir örneklem seçildi. Diş yaşını belirlemek için panoramic radyografiler kullanıldı. Diş yaşı Demirjian yöntemi puanlama sistemi kullanılarak değerlendirildi. İskelet yaşı Greulich ve Pyle yöntemi kullanılarak el bileği radyografisi ile ölçüldü. Veriler Mann- Whitney U ve Independent t-testleri tarafından analiz edildi.
Bulgular: Diş yaşı açısından obez ve normal kilolu gruplar arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık yoktur. (p> 0.05)
Sonuç: Çocuk diş hekimleri, diş ve iskelet sisteminin gelişimi etkilenebileceğinden, çocukların büyümesini değerlendirirken vücut kitle indeksi yüzdeliğini göz önünde bulundurmalıdır.
