Abstract
BACKGROUND: Because teeth and dental restorations are resistant to fire, the elements are valuable in identifying them. This allows a lost kid or remains to be identified. In both conventional dentistry and forensic dentistry, age estimation is useful. It's also utilised in anthropology to figure out how old past populations were based on immature skeletal remains. In live people, dental age is determined mostly using non-invasive methods such as a general physical examination, an intraoral examination, and a panoramic radiograph. The goal of this study is to use Nolla's approach to estimate age using the mandibular left third molar (38). AIM: The goal of this study is to use Nolla's approach to estimate age using the mandibular left third molar (38). MATERIALS AND METHODS:Orthopantomographs [25 male and 25 female] were used to investigate the usage of Nolla's approach to estimate the age of children. The OPGs belonged to children between the ages of 10 and 15. RESULT: The study's findings revealed that there was a clear link between gender and 38 staging. Gender was revealed to be statistically significant with 38 stages [p value 0.05]. In this study, there was no link or association between gender and actual age of the youngsters. For gender, actual age has little statistical significance [p value 0.05]. The age standard deviations for boys and females in this study are 1.48313 and 1.33601, respectively. The standard deviation values for the 38 boys and females in this study are 2.432 and 2.318, respectively. CONCLUSION: The current study concludes that larger sample sizes and population-specific data should be developed in future investigations.
