Aim: To evaluate and compare dental age with chronological of different facial patterns in growing patients. Materials method: This study comprises lateral cephalogram panoramic radiographs 100 subjects. Subjects were classified into two groups 50 each on the basis angular linear measurements Group I – Hypodivergent II Hyperdivergent growth respectively. Comparison between intergroups within in...

Methods: Sixty patients undergoing various aging face surgical procedures were randomly chosen for analysis. Preoperative and postoperative photographs were evaluated. Raters were presented with photographs in a random assortment and were asked to estimate the age of the patient. Perceived age difference was defined as the difference between the chronological age and the estimated age, and the ...

Vowel spectral noise was studied in the sustained phonations of 48 men representing two levels of physiological condition (good and poor) within each of three chronological age groups (25 to 35, 45 to 55, and 65 to 75 years). Results indicated physiological condition was significantly correlated with noise rankings, whereas chronological age and noise were not significantly correlated. These fi...

BACKGROUND Biomarkers of biological aging - DNA methylation age (DNAm age) and leukocyte telomere length (LTL)- correlate strongly with chronological age across the life course. It is, however, unclear how these measures of cellular wear and tear are associated with muscle strength and functional capacity, which are known to decline with older age and are associated with mortality. We investiga...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to investigate whether skeletal maturation using cephalometric radiographs could be used in a Brazilian population. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study population was selected from the files of the Oral Radiological Clinic of the Dental School of Piracicaba, Brazil and consisted of 128 girls and 110 boys (7.0 to 15.9 years old) who had cephalometric and hand...
