The assessment of facial growth and development is important to determine the optimal timing for different treatment procedures in the growing patient. Many skeletal maturity indicators have been proposed over previous years because chronologic age is not sufficient alone for assessing the stage of development in a growing child. Maturational status has been traditionally evaluated by hand-wrist radiographs which are considered the gold standard. Different radiographic methods have been evaluated for their correlation with the skeletal maturity, and simple and practical alternatives to the hand-wrist radiograph have been presented. In accordance with the ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) principle, if evaluation of skeletal age is indicated, it is important to take radiographs with the lowest dose. The objective of this review was to evaluate different methods for assessing skeletal maturity in dentistry.

Büyüme ve gelişimi devam eden hastalarda yüz gelişiminin değerlendirilmesi farklı tedaviler için optimal zamana karar vermede önem taşımaktadır. Büyüme ve gelişimi devam eden bir çocukta, çocuğun gelişiminin değerlendirilmesinde kronolojik yaşın tek başına yeterli bir parametre olamaması nedeni ile çeşitli iskeletsel olgunlaşma indikatörleri geliştirilmiştir. Bireyin olgunlaşma derecesi geleneksel olarak altın standart olarak dakabuledilen el-bilek radyografileri ile saptanabilmektedir. Bu nedenle iskeletsel olgunlaşmayı saptayabilmek için farklı radyografik yöntemler değerlendirilmiş ve el-bilek radyografilerine göre daha basit ve pratik alternatifler sunulmuştur. Mümkün olan en düşük radyasyon ekspozürü prensibine dayanarak, iskelet yaşı değerlendirmesinde en düşük radyasyon dozunun seçilmesi büyük önem taşımaktadır. Bu derlemenin amacı diş hekimliğinde iskeletsel olgunlaşmanın değerlendirilmesinde kullanılan farklı yöntemler hakkında bilgi vermektir.
