Age estimation based on tooth pulp volume using cbct images

Earlier studies on age estimation were unable to accurately estimate the age of over 20 years of age because they only examined tooth growth and development morphology from 2D radiographs as measurement parameters. In terms of growth and development, the tooth pulp volume will decrease in size ov...
