Post hoc < 0.01, a = primary incisor versus primary canine; b = primary incisor versus primary molar; c = primary canine versus primary molar.
Post hoc < 0.01, A = permanent incisors versus permanent canines; B = permanent incisors versus premolars; C = permanent incisors versus permanent molars; D = permanent canines versus premolars; E = permanent canines versus permanent molars; F = premolars versus permanent molars.
