Abstract

The diversity of dental patterns is a fundamental topic in disaster victim identification. The current scientific literature, however, is scarce of data regarding young individuals. This study aimed to assess the radiographic diversity of dental patterns, considering missing, unrestored, and filled teeth in young individuals. The sample consisted of 7219 panoramic radiographs of individuals between 12 and 22.9 years. The permanent teeth, except third molars, were coded as missing, unrestored, or filled and odds ratios (OR) were calculated based on sex, dental arch, and age. The sex-combined sample had 1.116 distinctive dental patterns. "All unrestored" teeth was the most common pattern (OR: 0.437) followed by the sequence of unrestored teeth except restored mandibular first molars (OR: 0.021). Females had more distinctive dental patterns than males (p < .001), while males had more unrestored teeth (p < .001). In the age category of 12-12.9 years, the OR for finding a distinctive dental pattern was 11%, while in the age category of 22-22.9 years it increased to 58%. On the other hand, the OR for "all unrestored" gradually decreased according to age (74% in the younger category, and 23% in the older age category). The distinctiveness of dental patterns among young individuals is affected by the predominance of unrestored teeth. However, registering a single filled tooth in a remaining unrestored dentition can reduce exponentially the probability of finding an identical pattern of missing, unrestored and filled teeth.

7219 名年轻人牙齿形态的放射学多样性--有助于识别灾难受害者。
牙齿形态的多样性是识别灾难受害者的一个基本课题。然而,目前的科学文献中有关年轻人的数据很少。本研究旨在评估年轻人牙齿形态的放射学多样性,包括缺失牙、未修复牙和填充牙。样本包括 7219 张年龄在 12 岁至 22.9 岁之间的全景照片。除第三磨牙外,其他恒牙均被编码为缺失、未修复或填充,并根据性别、牙弓和年龄计算出几率比(OR)。性别合并样本有 1.116 种不同的牙齿形态。"所有未修复 "牙齿是最常见的模式(OR:0.437),其次是除修复的下颌第一臼齿外的未修复牙齿序列(OR:0.021)。女性比男性有更多独特的牙齿形态(P
