Abstract Retention of primary teeth beyond the expected time of exfoliation is uncommon; this condition is known as persistence. A retained primary tooth, with the crown in good condition, roots, and supporting alveolar bone can serve adults for many years.

Aims-
To determine the prevalence of retained primary teeth and investigate the consequences of their persistence.

Materials and Methods- ORTHOPANTAMOGRAM (OPG) data obtained from pediatric and preventive dentistry of 500 patients, were investigated and examined for the presence of retained primary teeth.

Result-
The total occurrence of retained primary teeth was 64 out of a sample of 500. The Occurrence of Ankylosed teeth, ectopic eruption, agenesis, Impaction being 0, 15, 48, 1 respectively. The prevalence of retained primary teeth in the selected population is 12.8%. The prevalence of Ankylosed teeth, ectopic eruption, agenesis, Impaction is 0%, 3%, 8.6%, 0.2% and respectively.

Conclusion-
We found that primary teeth were retained in 12.8% of the study population. The most frequent causes of primary molar retention were agenesis of the permanent successor, followed by ectopic eruption and impaction of the successor teeth.
