Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the correlation between pulp chamber volume of mandibular first molar and chronological age in Deuteromalay sub race population. The analytical research design was done on the 180 samples from secondary data DICOM CBCT in Installation of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology at Dental Hospital of Universitas Padjadjaran Bandung Indonesia and was measured with ITK Snap v3.6.0 programme. The results of this study was analyzed using statistically correlation Pearson. The conclusion showed that there was correlation between pulp chamber volume of mandibular first molar and chronological age in Deuteromalay subrace population.
