RESUMO
The authors tested two methods of age estimation through dental examination. 42 autopsy cases, ages 18 to 79, were randomly selected by the University Medical School of Pécs, Department of Forensic Medicine in 1997-1998. After the odontograms were taken, one tooth from each individual was removed from the corpses and examined using both the Gustafson's and the Johanson's methods for age calculation. The results according to both methods showed a large standard deviation. It suggests the necessity of national data base and the re-examination of all of the methods tested on different population samples. The authors of this paper would like to inspire a revival of Hungarian forensic odontostomatology.
