Abstract

Age estimation in children is important in clinical as well as forensic dentistry. The orthopantomograph samples of 50 healthy children (25boys: 25girls) aged between 5-15 years was selected and Cameriere regression equation was applied. We observed underestimation of estimated age in boys and overestimation in girls as compared to their chronological age.

Keywords: Forensic dentistry, Cameriere regression equation, Haryana population, OPG, Age estimation.
