<![CDATA[Nutritional status is a requirement to determine whether a person is in a healthy state which is influenced by several factors, namely diet and adequacy of nutrients to carry out a normal metabolism. Some nutrients that can affect the growth and development of tooth eruption time include the large intake of vitamin D, calcium, phosphorus, and flour in the body. Deficiencies in nutrients can inhibit the process of tooth growth and development and slow down the time of tooth eruption. Tooth eruption is the process of moving teeth from the jawbone towards the oral cavity. Tooth eruption can be influenced by several factors, one of which is the nutritional status which is the state of the body as a result of food consumption and the use of nutrients. The purpose of this study was to elaborate on the relationship of nutritional status with permanent tooth eruptions in children of primary school age (6-12 years). This type of research uses a type of literature study research. Journal searches were conducted from 2017-2022 on Google Scholar and Pubmed databases in Indonesian and English. Journal search strategies use the keywords "permanent tooth eruption" and "nutritional status". Journals are selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria that will be reviewed. Based on the results of the literature review in 6 journals, it can be concluded that 4 journals state that there is a relationship between nutritional status and permanent tooth eruption in children of primary school age (6-12 years). Therefore, it is important to understand by health workers to improve nutrition programs in children and for parents to pay more attention to nutrition in children so as not to experience disturbances in the permanent tooth eruption process.]]>
