The tooth is the firmest organ in the human organism. It is resistant to physical and chemical effects, retains its shape long after death, and disintegrates slowly (25). Following the maturation of the tooth, in all phases of its development, we can say that characteristic and individual markings are obtained throughout the years (26). The methods of assessing dental age, which are used with adults and children, are those for assessing dental age with the help of a spectroradiometer, i.e. by means of tooth color, method cement and dentin aminoacid racemization (27). In situations which reguire a quick identification of human remains and the assessment of age and sex, forensic pathologists on the field are not able to conduct thorough and extensive examinations, but rather use simpler methods (28). The structure of the tooth's hard tissue is characteristic for each individual due to the rythmic deposition of enamel and dentin, and various disorders in matrix deposition which are manifested by irreversible changes. These changes can be observed on the Retzius lines and are used for forensic purposes since they concurrently effect the teeth at the same stage of development (29).
