BACKGROUND: Dental malocclusion is common all over the world, and it is caused by a difference in arch length and tooth size. This necessitates mixed dentition analysis for early intervention treatment planning such as eruption guiding, serial extraction, space maintainer, space regainer, and jaw extension. The aim of the study is to comparatively evaluate three different regression equation based mixed dentition analysis of children for prediction of the mesiodistal width of permanent canine and premolars in population of Vidarbha region. METHODS: This study comprised of 300 patients aged 13 to 16 years old. The impressions of patients were poured, and the mesiodistal width of their teeth was measured and documented. Three independent analyses were performed using the Ling and Wong method (L&W), the Bernabe and Flores-Mir method (B&F), and the Tanaka and Johnston method (T&J), and the results were compared to the sum of permanent canine and premolar teeth (SPCP). ANOVA with post hoc analysis was used to compare the predicted mesiodistal diameter (MDD) by analysis to the SPCP observed on cast. RESULTS: The mesiodistal width of SPCP of maxilla and mandibular teeth had statistically significant difference (P<0.001) with the predicted width by Ling and Wong method, Bernabe and Flores method and Tanaka and Johnston method for patients of Vidarbha region. CONCLUSIONS: The study concluded that all the three analysis overestimated the mesiodistal width of the sum of permanent canine and premolar in the patients. Tananka and Johnston analysis method was better in predicting the SPCP of the children of Vidarbha region.
