Dental age estimation in Egyptian children, comparison between two methods

Applicability of Demirjian’s four methods and Willems method for age estimation in a sample of Turkish children

“…In their study, Willems et al estimated chronological age with minimal errors (a median of 0.1 years for males and 0.2 years for females), but these were not statistically significant. It was reported that Willems method provided more accurate age estimation than the Demirjian's methods [16,17,19,24,[41][42][43]48,49]. Our results also support this fact.…”

Cameriere’s European formula for age estimation: A study on the children in Bosnia and Herzegovina

“…Cameriere's European formula was tested in different regions of the world. 7,18,[26][27][28][29][30] The European formula was compared to Willems and Haavikko methods on a sample of 1098 OPTs within age range between 6 and 13 years in the previous study from Bosnia and Herzegovina, DA overestimated for 0.09 years for girls (MAE, 0.53 years) and underestimated by -0.02 years for boys (MAE, 0.55 years), very close to our results of the same age range. 18 Contrary to our study in which we analyzed digital OPTs from a single institution, Galić et al 18 used analog OPTs which were photographed by the digital camera.…”

Age estimation in children by measurement of open apices in tooth roots: Study of a Mexican sample

“…In addition, although a different trend was observed in boys, slight MEs of 0.02 and 0.27 were shown in older individuals in the age groups for 13-14 and 14-15 years (Table 4). These results match those of many previous studies examining the applicability of Cameriere's method on various subjects from Europe and children from India and Egypt [55][56][57]. Cameriere et al [56] compared the methods of Demirjian [12], Willems [29] and Cameriere [40] on the open apices of tooth roots on OPGs from white Italian, Spanish and Croatian children (401 girls and 355 boys).…”
