Description: •Results: Positive and moderate coefficients found between chronological, dental and bone ages.•Conclusion: Decocq and Demirjian methods can be combined to assess precise biological ages.•Opening: Involving more operators could be done in order to obtain more reliable results. Bone and dental maturations are subject to physiological, environmental and pathological variables and are unique to each individual. Numerous methods for age estimation appeared to answer a new demand explained by the contemporary migratory movements and the increase of the crime rates. The objective of this study was to observe the relationships between skeletal and dental maturation stages to estimate which methods can be applied to a French population. This retrospective study was based on panoramic and cephalometric radiographs belonging to 192 (101 females and 91 males) orthodontic patients aged between 9 and 19 years, inhabitants of the Provence-Alpes-Côte d′Azur region. The Demirjian method based on dental calcification was used to estimate dental age. For the assessment of skeletal maturity and bone age, the Cervical Vertebral Maturation (CVM) method (Baccetti et al.) and its computerized version (Decocq et al.) were used. Spearman’s correlation tests were performed to estimate the correlation between dental calcification stages and those of cervical vertebral maturation among the study population. The methods of Lin’s concordance correlation coefficient and Bland and Altman were used to analyze the concordance between bone, dental and chronological ages. A moderate but statistically significant correlation was obtained between dental and skeletal developmental stages (R = 0.383–0.618). The tooth showing the highest correlation with vertebral stages was the second molar for both sexes. Earlier vertebral maturation stage affiliation was observed in girls. The results confirmed that bone and dental maturations can be assessed to estimate relevant biological ages for children in orthodontic or forensic contexts.
