    This study quantifies dentin transparency in human dental roots using computerized densitometry and novel software. Findings aid in age determination for forensic science and identifying pathological changes in dentin.

    Area of Science:

    • Dental Anatomy
    • Forensic Odontology
    • Biomedical Imaging

    Context:

    • Dentin transparency is a key indicator of root age and health.
    • Previous methods lacked quantitative precision.
    • Advanced imaging techniques are needed for accurate analysis.

    Purpose:

    • To quantitatively assess dentin transparency distribution in dental roots across different ages.
    • To develop and apply novel software (Shape Analytical Morphometry - S.A.M.) for densitometric analysis.
    • To explore applications in forensic age estimation and pathological dentin recognition.

    Summary:

    • Computerized densitometry and Shape Analytical Morphometry (S.A.M.) software were used to analyze transilluminated dental roots.
    • Densitometric matrices were processed for grey level classification, area evaluation, and visualization (false color, 3D graphs, isodensity maps).

  • The method provides a detailed quantitative and distributive analysis of dentin transparency.

    • Impact:

    • Enables precise age estimation in forensic investigations using dental roots.
    • Facilitates the recognition of altered dentin in various pathological conditions.
    • Advances quantitative analysis in dental research and diagnostics.
