Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the association between the MPS and CV maturation stages and age in a sample of Egyptian population using cone beam computed tomography scans.

Methodology: Sixty maxillofacial CBCT scans of individuals aged from 10 to 30 years were retrospectively gathered and visually analyzed for assessment of Mid-palatal suture and cervical vertebrae maturation stages and their association with age and with each other on corrected axial and sagittal views respectively. Two observers independently evaluated the CBCT images.

Results: There was a moderate positive association between age and MPS (rs=0.485). There were strong positive associations between (CVM-age) (rs=0.683) and (CVM-MPS) (rs=0.506). The study demonstrated excellent inter-observer and intra-observer agreement for MPS and CVM maturation stages assessment.

Conclusion: Mid-palatal suture maturation stage identification does not strongly correspond with chronological age. However, cervical vertebrae maturation stage determination can provide an accurate idea about the chronological age range.
