Abstract
Background & Methods: The aim of the study is to determine ge by tooth pulp volume measurement. All the CBCT images used for the establishment of the mathematical model collected to validate the precision and accuracy of the model for age estimation. The numerical value of the volume of pulp tooth ratio put into the mathematical models, to get the estimated age of these subjects. The actual age and estimated age of the subjects were then compared to determine the precision and accuracy of the established model. Results: The ANOVA test for successful prediction of age of the patient. The table shows that the p value is less than 0.05 indicating that the ratio of teeth of males and females is successful in predicting the age of the patients. Conclusion: Human age estimation can be done on the basis of pulp–tooth ratio of canine. This mathematical model to be evaluated on broad scale with different geographical population with larger sample size, and broader age groups in order to see for more accuracy in age estimation to get more substantial statistical results.
