    The purpose of this research was to determine the relationship between the space for the lower third molar and different skeletal patterns in patients aged 12 to 17 years who attended the Dental Científica center, Lima, 2017-2019. The study was observational, descriptive, cross-sectional, and retrospective. The study population consisted of 178 cephalometric and 178 panoramic radiographs, analyzed using the observation technique. Skeletal classes were determined by measuring the ANB angle (Steiner), and the space for the lower third molar was measured in millimeters using the Nemoceph version 2.0 software in Spanish. Results: No significant relationship was found between the space for the lower third molar and skeletal classes (p=0.94). The most frequent skeletal class was class II (47.2%), followed by class I (44.4%). Regarding the space for the lower third molar (ERTM), the general average was 8.72±4.22 mm for the right side and 9.86±4.26 mm for the left side. The ERTM values by age showed higher averages in 17-year-old patients, with 9.91±3.74 mm for the right side and 11.79±3.84 mm for the left side. Conclusion: There is no significant relationship between the space for the lower third molar and skeletal patterns.
