Our Method
Whether you are interested in deer teeth aging or aging teeth from other mammalian game species, you have come to the right place. Cementum aging is the most accurate method available, especially for older deer. Deer teeth aging using the tooth replacement method is most accurate for deer up to 2.5 years old, but the tooth wear method used for older animals is often just an educated guessing game. Cementum aging, on the other hand, is typically consistent regardless of age-class within a population. By trusting the deer teeth aging professionals at Matson’s Lab, you can be assured that your deer and other game are being aged scientifically and accurately. We make deer teeth aging simple!
