Age estimation in children is not only important in clinically dentistry but also in forensic dentistry. The orthopantomograph samples of  100 healthy children aged between 5-15 years were selected and applied to Cameriere et al regression equation. We observed underestimation of age in boys and overestimation in girls as compared to their chronological age.
