Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how the alveolar bone changes over time by analyzing 238 panoramic and 140 CT images to estimate age groups based on these changes.
  • It employs Procrustes analysis to compare younger individuals with older age groups and uses postmortem data to validate age estimation techniques.
  • The findings indicate that both imaging methods reveal significant bone changes related to aging, suggesting a potential for using these assessments in practical age estimation scenarios.

Objective: In recent years, personal identification has been performed using antemortem panoramic X-ray images and postmortem-CT images. Using these, we have developed a personal identification method that focuses on the alveolar bone. This study examined the effectiveness of this method and aimed to implement a reproducible system.
