pubmed-article:6931763 | pubmed:abstractText | Of the many measurements cited in the literature, correlation with age can only be established for the length of the transparent root dentine and that of the pulp cavity. The chronological age can be estimated with 90% reliability (+/- 5 years) for subjects between the ages of 20 and 60 by evaluating the quotients of both measurements. The time involved for the examination can be considerably reduced by using a combination of photographic and roentgenologic methods. The good correlation with age however was not reproducible. | lld:pubmed |
