BACKGROUND
Chronological age, as recorded by registration of birth date, is referred to throughout an individual's life. This information is relevant in medical and dental practice for evaluating developmental progress, for educational purposes, and in legal matters, particularly in the application of criminal law. The absence of birth date information raises particular concerns, and estimates of chronological age are often required. Standards of dental maturation may be used to estimate age, but they have been shown to be gender and population sensitive.
METHODS
The revised Demirjian' system of dental age estimation was applied to a sample of 615 South Australian children in order to assess its accuracy.
RESULTS
The results of our study have shown that the Demirjian system is of limited accuracy when used to estimate the age of South Australian children.
CONCLUSIONS
Generation of new standard curves, specific to the Australian population, is indicated.
背景
按出生日期登记记录的实足年龄贯穿一个人的一生。该信息在医疗和牙科实践中对于评估发育进程、用于教育目的以及在法律事务中，特别是在刑法应用方面具有相关性。出生日期信息的缺失引发了特别关注，因此常常需要估计实足年龄。牙齿成熟标准可用于估计年龄，但已表明这些标准对性别和人群敏感。
方法
将修订后的德米尔坚牙齿年龄估计系统应用于615名南澳大利亚儿童的样本，以评估其准确性。
结果
我们的研究结果表明，德米尔坚系统用于估计南澳大利亚儿童年龄时准确性有限。
结论
表明需要生成针对澳大利亚人群的新标准曲线。
