RESUMO
The details of a computer program, NSPEC, which simulates chemical speciation in aqueous systems, are presented. NSPEC has been designed explicitly for the IBM PC family of computers and is a departure from normal speciation programs in that it is controlled through interaction with a series of menus. The program is more user-friendly than other comparable speciation programs, can write the results files in formats suitable for importing into other programs, and, in many instances gives results faster than speciation programs running on microcomputers.

The cases presented here clearly demonstrate that the removal of second permanent molars can be effective in many cases where removal of first or second bicuspids would otherwise be recommended. Third molars can be useful components of the dentition. The Author has found that when the proper diagnosis is made and the extraction of second molars is recommended, third molars will assume their position in juxtaposition to the first permanent molar in over 75% of the cases. Although we used several methods of measuring developing mandibular third molars, we were unable to predict accurately and consistently which teeth would erupt in the proper upright position (Fig. 10). With rare exception, maxillary third molars will erupt uneventfully, but in the mandibular arch there is a much greater possibility that it may be necessary to upright or reposition the third molars.
