Abstract This retrospective study evaluated the relationship between pulp volume (PV) and pulp/tooth volume ratio (PTVR) derived from CBCT images of permanent mandibular central incisors for age estimation in 106 children and adolescents aged 8–17.1 years (mean age 12.14 ± 2.24). Three-dimensional segmentation was performed using 3D Slicer to calculate volumetric parameters, followed by sex-stratified correlation and linear regression analyses.
