Abstract

ABSTRAKPendahuluan: Perkiraan usia dilakukan untuk mengetahui usia seseorang. Saat ini perkiraan usia banyak digunakan, kepentingannya adalah untuk forensik dan bidang kedokteran gigi. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah mengetahui apakah Metode Al Qahtani mampu mengidentifikasi usia melalui radiograf panoramik di RSGM FKG Unpad. Metode: Penelitian ini dilakukan secara deskriptif sederhana dengan menggunakan software atlas Metode Al Qahtani, dengan melihat perkembangan gigi dan tingkat erupsi dari masing-masing radiograf panoramik. Hasil: Sebanyak 94 sampel yang diteliti, hanya 66 sampel dengan hasil usia gigi berdasarkan Metode Al Qahtani yang sama dengan usia pasien, sedangkan dari sisanya terdapat 28 sampel dengan usia gigi Metode Al Qahtani yang berbeda dengan usia pasien. Simpulan: Metode Al Qahtani dapat mengidentifikasi sebagian besar (70.21%) usia melalui radiograf panoramik di RSGM FKG Unpad dengan hasil usia yang bervariasi pada kelompok usia anak.Kata kunci: Identifikasi usia, metode Al Qahtani, radiograf panoramik Age identification based on Al Qahtani method through panoramic radiograph at the DentalABSTRACT Introduction: Estimated age is done to determine someone's age. At present age estimates are widely used, its importance is for forensics and the field of dentistry. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the Al Qahtani Method was able to identify age through panoramic radiographs at RSGM FKG Unpad. Methods: This study was carried out in a simple descriptive manner using the atlas software of the Al Qahtani Method, by observing the development of teeth and the eruption rate of each panoramic radiograph. Results: A total of 94 samples were studied, only 66 samples with dental age results based on the Al Qahtani Method which were the same as the patient's age, whereas of the remaining 28 samples with teeth age, the Al Qahtani Method was different from the patient's age. Conclusion: Al Qahtani method can identify the majority (70.21%) of age through panoramic radiographs at RSGM FKG Unpad with varying age results in the age group of children.

“…Apart from the Demirjian and Willems methods, the Al Qahtani method also has high accuracy and is the most modern method. This was proven by Rusydiana et al [ 29 ], who examined 94 samples. Of the 94 samples tested, 66 of them got a similar result to the patient's age.…”

“…In the research by Rusydiana et al in 2016, a total of 94 samples were calculated using the Al Qahtani method. The results showed that 66 (70.21%) of the samples using the method were able to get a good result of estimating the patient's chronological age, while the rest of 28 (29.79%) of the samples' estimation results were significantly different from the patient's chronological age [ 29 ].…”
