The mixed dentition pantomogram is routinely used in paediatric
patients. This paper discusses the value of the pantomogram
for early identification of problems in dental development during
the mixed dentition stage. Aspects regarding dental maturity,
leeway space, the sequence of eruption of the permanent teeth,
anomalies and the development of the canines will be reviewed.
