This study is aimed at finding the predictive accuracy of Demirjian's (D), modified Demirjian's (MD) and India specific age estimation methods (AA) Indian specific age estimation methods in 522 healthy children of Odisha population among 3-18 years. Correlations between chronological age (CA) and derived age (DA) by above mentioned methods were evaluated by Wilcoxon signed rank test and Pearson's correlation analysis. Analysis of mean absolute error concluded that D and MD predicted the CA with fair accuracy, whereas, AA had lower accuracy in Odisha children. Odisha specific polynomial regression formula, derived in this study is showing a strong correlation with CA (r=0.84). Comparison of mean absolute error of D, MD, AA and Odisha specific method indicated a better predictive accuracy of Odisha specific method.
