ABSTRACT
In an attempt to study the relation between malnutrition and eruption of teeth among children, a total 253 male and female children aged 1-12 years were examined. These were divided into 2 groups, group 1 consisted of 110 malnourished children, and group II consisted of 143 children free from clinical signs of malnutrition. Comparisons were made between the two groups using t-test and chi-square test. The erupted teeth were recorded It was found that malnutrition causes a delay in the time of eruption of both the deciduous and the permanent dentition
