Dental Age Assessment (DAA) of Children and Emerging Adults: A Practical Guide
Abstract
A variety of methods have been used to estimate dental age. Tooth development as a means of estimating age has been used for several centuries. The purpose of the chapter is to describe the method used at the Dental Paediatric Unit of King’s College London Dental Institute and the UCL Eastman Dental Institute to carry out Dental Age Assessment (DAA). An important principle is the biological variability of growth of teeth, a factor inappropriately considered in many studies of DAA. This chapter serves to inform colleagues, lawyers, immigration workers, social workers and subjects of unknown date of birth of the way in which DAA is conducted.
