Brief Summary   The aim of the study is to analyze and correlate the recorded thumbprints of the children with the recorded spacing in the mouth. 320 children of age group 3 to 6 years will be chosen. the intraoral photographs will be taken using a digital camera to assess the spacing in the dentition. Ridge pattern of the thumbs will be recorded using a digital fingerprint scanner. Finally, statistical analysis will be done to correlate dermatoglyphics with the incidence of spaced or non spaced dentition.
