Abstract
We investigated three-dimensional decrease in the volume of the pulp chamber caused by age-related secondary dentin formation using micro-CT and evaluated the applicability of the results to evaluation of age taking into account sex, age and tooth type. Decrease was slightly higher in females than in males, and a higher correlation between decrease and aging was observed in females. A comparison between age-groups revealed that decrease progressed between the fifties and sixties in males, and the forties and fifties in females. A stronger correlation between aging and decrease was observed in the mandibular central incisors than in the mandibular second premolars. This correlation was higher than other correlations between sexes and age-groups.
