Background: Tooth development follows a structured sequence, progressing through mineralization and root formation. The assessment of dental development is essential for age estimation in forensic and clinical dentistry. While symmetry between the left and right sides of the jaw is often assumed, discrepancies between the maxilla and mandible in tooth formation remain less explored. This study evaluates the developmental symmetry of permanent teeth using the Moorrees and Demirjian methods, comparing the left and right sides of the jaw as well as the maxilla and mandible.
