Usability of dental pulp visibility and tooth coronal index in digital panoramic radiography in age estimation in the forensic medicine

In conclusion, we believe that the root pulp visibility of the third molar teeth can be applied safely for stages 1, 2, and 3 at 16, 17, and 21 years of ages, respectively. A correlation was also found between TCI and age, and our findings have shown that both methods are available for forensic purposes.
