[Correlation between age and developmental stages of permanent teeth and developmental stages of hand-wrist skeletal].

A total of 190 randomly selected panoramic radiographs of teeth and Hand-Wrist radiographs of the patients at the Faculty of Dentistry, Mahidol University was studied with the age varied from 3-22 years, both sexes. Regression analysis showed that there was a high correlation between age with developmental stages of teeth and Hand-Wrist developmental stages. Estimation of age can be done through the equation, based on given scores of developmental stages of teeth and Hand-Wrist developmental stages.
