Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To evaluate the relationship between salivary bone-specific alkaline phosphatase and skeletal maturity assessed using lateral cephalogram and hand- wrist radiograph as one time analysis.Timepoint: Base line

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. To identify and estimate the B-ALP level in whole unstimulated saliva at different stages of skeletal maturity. 2. To correlate B-ALP level in saliva with different stages of skeletal development using CVMI. 3. To correlate B-ALP level in saliva with different stages of skeletal development determined using hand-wrist radiograph (computerized method using software). 4. To correlate CVMI with Hand-wrist radiograph to assess the different stages of skeletal development. Timepoint: 3 months
