The accuracy of prediction of three mixed dentition analyses was compared. Hixon and Oldfather's method was found to be the most accurate. A simplified version of the analysis obviates referral to a table, allowing assessment of the size of the unerupted teeth prior to eruption of the lateral incisor.
