dc.description.abstract | Dental age estimation in the living and deceased is a fundamental aspect of forensic
sciences, civil cases, medico-legal proceedings and clinical dentistry. Accordingly, this study aimed
to validate the accuracy and reproducibility of the London Atlas in a select South African sample
of KwaZulu-Natal. In this cross-sectional study, 760 digital panoramic radiographs (n = 760) aged
between 5.00 and 23.99 years were retrospectively reviewed through consecutive sampling. Each
radiograph was assessed and assigned a dental age in accordance with the London Atlas of Human
Tooth Development and Eruption by AlQahtani et al. (2010). | en_US |
