Several categories of dental age estimation will be discussed:
- Age Estimation in Children – Open Apices in Teeth: Method assessing chronological age by examining the relationship between age and open apices in developing teeth, specifically focusing on children.
- Age Estimation in Sub-adults – Open Apices in Third Molars: Assess adult age with the open apex maturity index for the third molar (I3M).
- Adult Age Estimation using the Pulp/Tooth Ratio in Canines: Age estimation, utilizing periapical X-rays of upper and lower canines to evaluate secondary dentine apposition.
Notes: No Prior Knowledge Required: Attending the lectures does not require prior knowledge of human identification or dental age estimation.
