“…Because not a few of these cases have claimed victims whose conditions have been damaged and who have lost their identities. Age can be estimated because of increasing age and the subsequent development of body structures which in turn can be related to an individual's age [ 15 , 16 ].…”

Indonesia is an archipelagic country bordered by tectonically active zones with intense seismicity and volcanism. This condition is often associated with a high-risk situation of disasters in Indonesia. Forensic identification is a necessary procedure to reveal an individual’s identity. An identity, including sex and age, is needed to build a conclusion of human identification. Dental age estimation is a subfield of forensic odontology which focuses on establishing an individual’s age. Tooth development, biochemical, and postformation changes are the parameters for estimating dental age. This review discusses the applicable dental age estimation method for children and adolescents in Indonesia. Several articles that have previously studied dental age estimation in Indonesia were reviewed for this manuscript. On reviewing these articles, it was found that the Demirjian method, the Willems method, and the Al Qahtani method are useful in this population with higher accuracy than other methods.

Aims and Objectives: The aim of this study was to establish the relationship between the ages of the eruption of permanent teeth in correlation with the local population and related factors. Methods: The present prospective observation study was conducted on one thousand students in schools and colleges aged 6–25 years by the Department of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology, Government Medical College, Amritsar. The data collected from this study were organized by presenting it in appropriate tables and graphs, which are statistically analyzed for percent ages and inferences. Results: The first permanent tooth to erupt is the first permanent Molar, which erupts at 75.9–77.9 months; permanent central incisor is the second permanent tooth to erupt following the first Molar. The age of eruption is 80.8–84.0 months. Permanent Lateral Incisor erupts at the age of 105.2– 107.4 months, and permanent Premolar one teeth erupt at the age of 109.5–112.6 months, permanent premolar two teeth erupt at the age of 131.0– 133.8 months, permanent Canine teeth erupt at the age of 142.6–144.8 months. Conclusion: It is thus concluded, based on the present study that the growth and eruption of teeth depend on various factors, including genetic as well as ecological aspects. The most accurate method, which depends on the conditions as well circumstances of each case, namely, the elements can be age, people participating in the study, supporting networks, availability of tools of age estimation, culture, religion, and ethnicity of the individual.

“…Teeth have been widely used to estimate the age of individual [5]. The development of teeth, as well as degenerative changes, occurs at a certain age, therefore it can be used to estimate age of an individual from intra-uterine period to adulthood [6,7]. Age estimation by dental development using radiographic methods include the scoring procedure by Demirjian et al [8], and the atlas methods by Schour and Massler [9], Ubelaker [10], AlQahtani et al [11], and Blenkin and Taylor [12].…”

Dental development can be used to estimate age for forensic purposes. However, most of the currently available methods are less reliable for the Indonesian population due to population variability. This study presents a new method and evaluates other methods that utilize dental development to estimate the age of Indonesian people. Panoramic radiographs of 304 young Indonesian people aged 5-23 years old were analysed for deciduous tooth root resorption, permanent tooth calcification, and eruption. The extent of tooth root resorption was determined based on AlQahtani's modified Moorrees et al. method. Tooth calcification was classified based on a modified Demirjian et al. method. Tooth eruption was evaluated based on AlQahtani's modified Bengston system. The sequence of tooth root resorption, and permanent tooth calcification and eruption were grouped into 19 age categories (from 5-23 years old) in an atlas. The differences between males and females, between maxillary and mandibular teeth, and between right and left teeth were also analysed. There were minimal significant differences of tooth development between males and females, and between the right and left teeth (P > 0.05), while the maxillary and mandibular dental development was significantly different (P < 0.05). The newly developed atlas showed the development of the right side of maxillary and mandibular tooth of combined sex of Indonesian population. Another 34 panoramic radiographs of known-age and sex individuals from Indonesia were assessed using the newly developed Atlas of Dental Development in the Indonesian Population, Ubelaker's Dental Development Chart, The London Atlas of Human Tooth Development and Eruption by AlQahtani, and the Age Estimation Guide-Modern Australia population by Blenkin-Taylor. Accuracy was assessed by comparing estimated age to actual chronological age using the Bland-Altmand test. Results show that the smallest range of error was found in the Atlas of Dental Development in the Indonesian Population (−0.969 to 1.210 years), followed by The London Atlas of Human Tooth Development and Eruption by AlQahtani (−2.013 to 1.990 years), the Age Estimation Guide-Modern Australia population by Blenkin-Taylor (−2.495 to 2.598 years), the Dental Development Chart by Ubelaker (−2.960 to 3.289 years). These findings show that the Atlas of Dental Development constructed in this study performs better than the other three methods and presents greater accuracy of age estimation in the Indonesian population. KEY POINTS• Dental development such as deciduous tooth root resorption, permanent tooth calcification, and tooth eruption can be used to estimate age for forensic purposes. • The development of the teeth are influenced by genetic, ethnicity, and sex, therefore an age estimation method must be constructed based on the same population. • There were minimal significant differences in tooth development between male and female, and between right and left teeth, but there was significant difference between maxillary and mandibular teeth. • The A...
