Systemic diseases such as heart disease can interfere with the child's growth process, which can lead to a decrease in tissue oxygenation and impair normal development. The evaluation of the age and bone maturation of cardiac patients is of great use for orthodontic planning, mainly for determination of the beginning of the treatment and the use of orthopedic mechanical resources. The objective of this study was to evaluate the degree of correlation between the chronological, bone and dental ages of patients with and without congenital heart disease. The sample consisted of 113 children and adolescents, aged between 4.6 and 14.6 years, of whom 74 had congenital heart disease and 39 without any systemic or local disease that could affect systemic development or craniofacial growth. All were attended at the pediatric outpatient clinic of the Pedro Ernesto University Hospital of the State University of Rio de Janeiro. Bone age was obtained by hand and wrist radiographs, analyzed according to the method of Greulich and Pyle. Dental age was calculated by observing the calcification stages on panoramic radiographs by the Demirjian method. Bone and dental ages were higher in the non-cardiopathic group, but with no significant difference (p = 0.88) and (p = 0.6119), respectively. Bone age was significantly shorter than chronological age for cardiac patients (p <0.0001). In the non-cardiopathic group, bone age was higher, but without significant difference (p = 0.3471). In both groups, with and without congenital heart disease patients, dental age was significantly higher than chronological age (p <0.0001). There was a significant difference for the two groups, with and without heart disease, with a higher value for dental age compared to bone age. Regarding the dental age, no one presented delay, neither of the group of cardiac patients nor of non-cardiac patients. The same result was observed in the stratification by sex. In relation to bone age, there was a greater delay in the group of patients with heart disease, without significant difference (p = 1). This trend also occurred for the boys (p = 0.680)and girls (p = 0.534)with heart disease
