title: [The possibility to test stereognosis in the juvenile mouth].
abstract: The stereognostic capacity of the mouth was studied in 6 groups of 10 children each, the respective age ranges being 3.5-4, 4-4.5, 4.5-5, 5-5.5, 5.5-6 and 6.5 years. This capacity is fully developed only if the 5th year of life is reached. The stereognostic performance of the mouth which is attained at this age seems (according to data from the literature) to remain unchanged until the age of 40 years.
