: The results of this study have important implications for accurate age estimation which is vital for diagnosing dental issues and planning appropriate interventions. The significant predictors identified—gender, N0, X3, and X5—can be integrated into clinical practices to enhance the precision of age assessments. This could lead to improved outcomes in orthodontic treatment planning, ensuring that interventions are initiated at the optimal time for each individual.
