    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To establish the chronology and sequence of eruption of the permanent teeth in subjects with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate. DESIGN: Cross-sectional. Data on children presenting complete cleft lip and palate were evaluated. SETTING: The study was carried out at the Hospital for Rehabilitation of Craniofacial Anomalies, Bauru, São Paulo, Brazil. SAMPLE: The sample comprised 477 patients with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate, aged 5 to 14 years. Of these patients, 166 were girls and 311 were boys. RESULTS: The girls presented, for all maxillary and mandibular teeth, a smaller mean age of eruption than the boys. The maxillary lateral incisor and cuspid adjacent to the cleft presented significantly higher mean ages of eruption than their homologous teeth on the noncleft side.
