Estimation of age is one of the perplexing problems faced by forensic experts and anthropologists. Changes in the size of pulp canal caused by apposition of secondary dentin as a person ages is one of the parameters employed in age estimation by X-rays. Radiographic method scores over the other methods because it is non-invasive, inexpensive and easily accomplished. This study measured the Pulp/tooth ratio mesiodistally of the maxillary lateral incisor radiographically. The model explained 74.1% of total variance.
