ANALYSISANALYSIS
 The purpose of a mixed dentition analysis is toThe purpose of a mixed dentition analysis is to
evalute the amount of space available in theevalute the amount of space available in the
arch for the erupting permanent canines andarch for the erupting permanent canines and
premolars. In this analysis the size of thepremolars. In this analysis the size of the
unerupted permanent cuspids and premolars areunerupted permanent cuspids and premolars are
predicted from the knowledge of the sizes ofpredicted from the knowledge of the sizes of
certain permanent teeth that are already eruptedcertain permanent teeth that are already erupted
in the mouth.in the mouth.

 The moyers analysis predicts the combinedThe moyers analysis predicts the combined
mesio-distal width of 3,4,5 based on the sum ofmesio-distal width of 3,4,5 based on the sum of
the widths of the four lower permanent incisors.the widths of the four lower permanent incisors.
 the mesio-distal width of the four lower incisorthe mesio-distal width of the four lower incisor

space available for the 3,4and 5 after incisorspace available for the 3,4and 5 after incisor
alignment is determined by measuring thealignment is determined by measuring the
distance between the distal surface of lateraldistance between the distal surface of lateral
incisor and the mesial surface of first permanentincisor and the mesial surface of first permanent

 Based on the mesio-distal width of fourBased on the mesio-distal width of four
mandibular incisors, the expected width of themandibular incisors, the expected width of the
canines, first and second premolars arecanines, first and second premolars are
predicted by referring the probability chart. Whilepredicted by referring the probability chart. While

 The predicted tooth size of 3,4,5 is comparedThe predicted tooth size of 3,4,5 is compared
with arch length available for them so as towith arch length available for them so as to
determine the discrepancy. If the predicted valuedetermine the discrepancy. If the predicted value
is greater than the available archis greater than the available arch
