Does one size fit all : the need for a continuous measure for glycemic control in diabetes?
A continuous measure of A1C can better capture than a dichotomous measure the complexity of glycemic control at a population level.
Our comparison of results gathered from 2000 and 2004 showed that as the children grew older, the prevalence of already-enlarged overjets increased, as did the frequency of deep bite. We observed fewer frontal open bites and crossbites in late mixed dentition. Treatment need according to current statutory health insurance directives was clearly higher in the late mixed dentition (41.4%) than in the early mixed dentition (8%).
