    The study was cross-sectional, descriptive, and retrospective. It was conducted using a total of 264 digital panoramic radiographs, with 116 from males and 148 from females, employing the Demirjian method to estimate dental age based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria established for the study, obtained from the Dental Imaging Center. The method is based on developmental stages by observing the mineralization state of the 7 lower left dental pieces and the score given based on the mineralization stage of each piece according to the Demirjian method. Results: A difference between dental age and chronological age was observed, with boys being 1.04 years ahead of their chronological age and girls being 0.9 years ahead. Conclusion: It was concluded that the Demirjian method provided better results for estimating dental age in the female population.
