Abstract

Teeth are an excellent material for anthropological, genetic, odontologic and forensic investigations in living and non-living human populations. The aim of the present study was to estimate the age using molar’s attrition grading. A total of 235 molars were selected. The attrition conditions of the molar’s crown were analyzed. Linear equations for age estimation were derived by mean of regression analysis. There were highly statistically significant correlation between molar’s attrition and chronological age. When the age of individual remains completely unknown, the best estimates were provided by attrition of first molar.

Key words: Attrition, Age, Molar, Regression equation.
