The numbers of females were 100 and thenumbers of males were 100.Results: Highest percentage of children showed mesial terminal end( 60.5%) followed by flat terminal end( 29%) andthe smallest percentage for distal terminal end( 10.5%),high percentages of children showed Cl I Canine relation andCl I over jet relation followed by ClI and small percentage showed ClII canine and over jet relation.Conclusion: Most children had mesial terminal end so will guide the permanent first molars to Cl I molar relation, andmost children had Cl I canine and over jet relation so we will expect the future permanent teeth will be within normalover jet and canine relation.Key words: Malocclusion, primary dentition, over jet.
