Full Description

This book is a guide to dental age assessment showcasing the importance of teeth in forensic age estimation and highlighting the correlation between skeletal maturity and chronological age. It provides a comprehensive overview of various dental age estimation techniques used in all stages of development, from pre-natal life to adulthood. Contemporary approaches like London Atlas and Cameriere methods, which provide an easy and accurate age determination are highlighted, and the stages of calcification and mineralization of teeth are explained. The book covers radiological, histologic, and biochemical techniques including aspartic acid racemization, radiocarbon dating, along with DNA methylation. Less explored futuristic aspects in the field of age estimation including automation and artificial intelligence (AI) based algorithms are discussed. The book is a valuable guide to literature supported forensic age estimation report-writing and helps readers to translate their knowledge into practice.
