The book “Third Molar Tooth (A Comparative Study in Tribal and Non-tribal)”. The identity of a person can be established by assessing one’s age, and in order to

be entitled to civil rights and social benefits, verification of the chronological age is required and thereby age estimation has gained an increasing significance in recent

years. Tooth eruption is one of the criteria of developmental morphology that can be evaluated by either clinical examination or by evaluation of dental radiographs to

determine the dental age. The present study was aimed to evaluate the reliability of the third molar eruption stage as a parameter for forensic age estimation in living

subjects.


Third molar is fairly a reliable indicator to determine the age of alveolar, gingival, and complete emergence of third molar in the occlusal plane in adolescents and

young adults. Minimum and most probable ages of examined subjects can also be evaluated using third molar eruption stage.


This book will update the information available so far for proper planning and administration towards the development of tribal and non-tribal groups in India.

The book will be useful for dentists, anatomists, dental anthropologists, human biologists, social scientists, administrators, policymakers, planners and students of

sciences interested in understanding the difference between tribal and non-tribal ethos and world views.
