The feasibility of the adult age estimation 3D-CBCT method on ancient human remains.

J Forensic Odontostomatol

December 2024

Laboratory of Personal Identification and Forensic Morphology, Department of Health Sciences, University of Florence, Florence, Italy.

The age estimation of skeletal remains still represents a central issue not only for the reconstruction of the so-called "biological profile," but mostly for the palaeodemographic investigation. This research aims at verifying the feasibility of the adult age estimation method developed on living people by Pinchi et al. (2015 and 2018), for estimating the age at the death of 37 subjects from ancient populations found in two different Italian necropolis of archaeological interest (Mont'e Prama and Florence, X-IX century B.

This study aims to compare the accuracy of Demirjian's and Cameriere's methods in determining adult age at the 18-year threshold using mandibular third molars in the Thai population. Panoramic radiograph images of 504 healthy subjects aged between 14 and 23 years were retrospectively collected. The developmental stages of mandibular third molars were evaluated using Demirjian's method, while the maturity index of mandibular third molars (I3M) was assessed using Cameriere's method.

Effects of long-term steroid therapy on the results of dental age estimation using pulp/tooth ratio.

J Forensic Odontostomatol

December 2024

Department of Medicine and Health Science "Vincenzo Tiberio", University of Molise, AgeEstimation Project, Campobasso, Italy.

Forensic age estimation is performed by assessing pulp chamber constrictions due to physiological age-related changes in dental radiographs; however, the estimated ages occasionally deviate from the actual ages. In particular, long-term steroid users tend to demonstrate pulp chamber constrictions in all teeth. Because this is uncommon among younger age groups, caution should be exercised when evaluating pulp chamber constriction.

Introduction Dental anthropology plays a pivotal role in human evolution and forensic sciences. This study explores a unique method for age estimation-analyzing mamelons on incisors. Mamelons are small projections on the incisal edge of permanent incisors, exhibiting age-related changes.

Sex determination method using the third cervical vertebral body by head and neck CT.

J Oral Biosci

December 2024

Division of Forensic Odontology, Department of Diagnostic and Therapeutic Sciences, Meikai University School of Dentistry, Saitama, Japan; Forensic Odontology Center, Meikai University School of Dentistry, Saitama, Japan.

Objectives: This study aimed to measure the volume of the third cervical vertebra using head and neck multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) and establish a sex determination model based on sex differences in volume.

Methods: Head and neck CT images of 85 patients were obtained for dental diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) data obtained from head and neck CT were constructed using a three-dimensional image analysis software.
