The first radiographic appearance of adductor sesamoid bone of thumb is considered reliable and is the most commonly used indicator of puberty growth spurt. The purpose of this study was to find out whether the tooth mineralization stage/stages were as reliable an indicator of puberty growth spurt as the adductor sesamoid bone. Puberty assessment has its necessary application in diagnosis, treatment planning of various malocclusions and in medico legal cases. The results indicated that a close relationship existed between tooth mineralization Stage G and appearance of the sesamoid bone. Hence it can be used in dentistry as an indicator for onset of puberty growth spurt via periapical or panoramic radiographs. The result of this study were not applicable to boys as the apical closure of these teeth had already occurred at the time of early radiographic appearance of the adductor sesamoid bone.
拇指内收籽骨的首次影像学表现被认为是可靠的，并且是青春期生长突增最常用的指标。本研究的目的是探究牙齿矿化阶段是否与内收籽骨一样是青春期生长突增的可靠指标。青春期评估在各种错牙合畸形的诊断、治疗计划制定以及法医案件中都有其必要的应用。结果表明，牙齿矿化G期与籽骨出现之间存在密切关系。因此，它可在牙科中通过根尖片或全景片用作青春期生长突增开始的指标。本研究结果不适用于男孩，因为在拇指内收籽骨早期影像学表现出现时，这些牙齿的根尖已经闭合。
