Abstract:
Dental age estimation is a crucial aspect and one of the ways to accomplish forensic age estimation,and imaging technology is an important technique for dental age estimation.In recent years,some studies have preliminarily confirmed the feasibility of magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)in evaluating dental development,providing a new perspective and possibility for the evaluation of den-tal development,suggesting that MRI is expected to be a safer and more accurate tool for dental age estimation.However,further research is essential to verify its accuracy and feasibility.This article re-views the current state,challenges and limitations of MRI in dental development and age estimation,offering reference for the research of dental age assessment based on MRI technology.
