Age- and sex-related changes in the position of the mental foramina and age estimation methods that use these changes by Masataka Kawamoto, Hiroki Kondou, Hiroaki Ichioka, Satoko Kimura, Risa Bandou, Ryota Matsunari, Ting Deng, Hiroshi Ikegaya

“…The results of the single regression analysis showed a positive correlation (r = 0.54) of the distance with age in men and a negative correlation (r=-0.54) in women. The mean coefficient of determination for single regression analysis was 0.26 for both sexes, which was low, making it unsuitable as a stand-alone age estimation index, although it can aid in age estimation.…”
