Abstract

|
Knowledge of growth and development is essential for pediatric dentistry treating growing patients. The data from the pediatric growth curve being used today does not reflect the growth transition of modern times, nor does it match the age range required for dental purposes. The present study, therefore, aims to introduce the process of producing a growth curve and growth rate curve based on data which represents a more accurate description of the present situation. The original data used in this study were from 5th nationwide survey. SIZE KOREA 2004 study carried out by the Technology and Standards Policy Division. Department of Technology and Standards Planning. Ministry of Commerce, Industry, and Energy. Processing and rearranging the produced data with variations divided into the three quartiles and the 1st, 5th 95th and 99th percentiles were included to produce a growth observation chart according to sex, height and weight differences. In the same way, a growth rate curve based on the geometric mean value was produced. The resulting growth charts can be used as an index for growth and development, and used for better communication between the pediatric dentist, patients or their parents.
