How much leeway space is present in an 8-year-old child's mandibular arch?

  1. Approximately 2.5mm

  2. Approximately 3.5mm

  3. Approximately 4.5mm

  4. Approximately 1.5mm

The correct answer is: Approximately 3.5mm

The correct answer is approximately 3.5mm. This is because an 8-year-old child's mandibular arch is still growing and developing, so the amount of space may vary slightly. However, options A, C, and D are incorrect because they are either too small or too large to accurately represent the average amount of leeway space in a child's mandibular arch. It is important to note that individual differences may also play a factor in the amount of space present.
