“…The delayed tooth development is relatively correlated with low socio-economic status of a population, and it may cause the underestimation of the biological age of an individual. [17][18][19] The overall result of the present study suggests that the assessment of tooth calcification stages through the radiographic examination is the most reliable method for estimating the dental age. Tooth calcification can be accurately observed from the radiographs with minimum discrepancies caused by local factors such as lack of space or retention of the deciduous teeth.…”

Background:The individual age as documented in the birth certificate shall be authorized as a chronological age. In several countries, falsification of documents relating to an individual age is becoming a major problem, since it is correlated with monetary, marriage, and education matter. Forensic dentistry works to minimize the possibility of individual age falsification by studying the tooth developmental stages. The objective of this study is to observe the applicability of the third molar development related to the biological age. Materials and Methods:A total of 93 OPG (orthopantomogram) of subjects (16 -23 years old) from the Java population were involved in this study. Third molar developmental stages of the mandibular were evaluated using the Demirjian et al. method. The statistical analysis was carried out using IBM® SPSS® Statistics version 23.0 (IBM, Armonk, NY, USA). Results and Conclusion:The result showed that the average Java population reached the final stage at an average age of 21 ± 1,39 years in females and 20 ± 1,9 years in males. The present study indicates that the development of mandibular third molar is slightly earlier in males than in females. Besides, Demirjian's method is considered as a reliable method for dental age estimation in the Java population.

Objectives. Dental age estimation has been employed in a range of legal operations as well as catastrophe victim identification. Dental age estimation is regarded as an appropriate method for estimating a person’s age because there is a high association between age and teeth. This study aims to assess the suitability of the Al Qahtani and Willems dental age estimation approaches for the Indonesian children and adolescent population. Methods. A total of 150 panoramic radiographs of patients (75 boys and 75 girls, 6-17 years old) were obtained from the Department of Radiology, Airlangga University, Indonesia. One researcher analyzed estimated dental age (EDA) twice in a one-week time-lapse using the Willems and Al Qahtani methods. The statistical analysis of the present study was carried out using IBM® SPSS® Statistics version 25.0 (IBM, Armonk, NY, USA). Results. The mean of this study’s chronological age (CA) was 11.60 ± 3.41. Using the Willems method, the mean difference between CA and EDA for boys and girls was -0.41 ± 0.90. The mean difference between CA and EDA for boys and girls is 0.33 ± 0.61 using the Al Qahtani method. Conclusions. According to the findings of this investigation, the dental age estimation method proposed by Al Qahtani and Willems can be applied to the population in Surabaya. However, a comprehensive study is required when using this method because the data revealed significant statistical disparities between the two methods.

“…In some cases, such as sexual abuse, the lipstick and bloodstains are often found in a crime scene and become a piece of evidence that correlated with the victim or the suspected person. Untraced lipstick stain on any objects may be easily lifted by aluminum and magnetic powder [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] .…”

Lip prints and bloodstains may be left behind in many crime scenes and may reveal the identity of the victim and the suspected person. This study was aimed to investigate the inheritance pattern of lip prints and blood groups among parents and their offspring in the Javanese population. 105 subjects from 25 Javanese family frames participated in this study. Lips print pattern was recorded and analyzed according to Suzuki and Tsuchihashi classification. A blood group test was also performed for each subject. The statistical analysis carried out using IBM® SPSS® Statistics version 23.0 (IBM, Armonk, New York, USA). The results of this study revealed that type II was the predominant pattern of lip prints among the Javanese population (34.3%). Blood group A was the predominant type in subjects with lip prints type II (15%). The result also shows that the lip prints pattern in girls tends to be inherited from the mother. However, the inheritance of lip prints pattern in boys couldn't be determined precisely. The heritability of lip prints pattern was observed between parents and their offspring. Also, there was a tendency of blood groups to have a certain pattern of lip prints.
