A third molar counted as erupted when its tooth-count code was 2. Exam weights WTMEC2YR were divided by 2. Prevalence by year of age from 12 to 29 was compared with half the mean prevalence at ages 25–29. https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/assessment/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type https://w3id.org/delphi/ontology/Assessment https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/assessment/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment Measured: 18 youngest age in years at which weighted third-molar prevalence reaches half the age-25-to-29 mean (n = 2375, late-twenties plateau prevalence 0.4234). Interpretation: The last grinders are the four third molars (Universal numbers 1, 16, 17 and 32). 'Cutting the gum' is read as a permanent tooth coded present in the mouth, not as a radiograph of an unerupted tooth and not as a root fragment. 'About twenty' is the interval 17–23. People who never erupt a third molar, and people whose teeth were extracted, pull prevalence down at older ages; using half the late-twenties plateau, rather than 50 percent of all people, is the pre-registered allowance for agenesis. It does not correct extraction between eruption and the examination. https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/assessment/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#label Claim test of aristotle-ga05-25: supports, confidence 0.6 https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/assessment/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#seeAlso https://github.com/fractastical/delphisci/blob/bf2af6ee0a84e23ffa6414ad7a0a50a8c276506e/test-data/claim-tests/aristotle-biology/aristotle-ga05-25/result.json https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/assessment/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test http://www.w3.org/ns/prov#wasAttributedTo https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/agent/delphisci-claim-tester-grok-4-7 https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/assessment/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test https://w3id.org/delphi/ontology/admissibleDatasets Public dental examinations that record age in years and the presence of each third molar in the mouth, with an examination weight.

Thresholds are in pass_criterion. The clause about eruption in old age is not tested: a cross-section cannot separate late eruption from extraction. https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/assessment/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test https://w3id.org/delphi/ontology/passCriterion Pre-registered. Pool NHANES 2015–2016 and 2017–2018 oral-health and demographic examinations. An erupted third molar is tooth-count code 2 (permanent tooth present) on OHX01TC, OHX16TC, OHX17TC or OHX32TC. A person counts if OHDEXSTS is 1 and at least one of those four codes is in {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}. Prevalence at integer age a (12 through 29) is the exam-weighted proportion with at least one erupted third molar, weights WTMEC2YR divided by 2 because two cycles are pooled. The plateau is the unweighted mean of prevalence at ages 25, 26, 27, 28 and 29. The eruption-age proxy is the youngest age at which prevalence reaches half the plateau. The claim is supported if that age is in 17 through 23 inclusive. It is refuted if the age is 15 or younger, or 26 or older. Ages 16, 24 and 25 are mixed. The verdict is inconclusive with reason underpowered if the plateau is below 0.15, or the proxy is undefined, or the unweighted number of counted people aged 15–25 is below 400. If WTMEC2YR is absent the verdict is inconclusive with reason data-unavailable. If OHDEXSTS is absent, the exam-status filter is skipped and recorded as a deviation; the tooth-code rule is unchanged. https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/assessment/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test https://w3id.org/delphi/ontology/preregistered false https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/claim/aristotle-ga05-25 https://w3id.org/delphi/ontology/hasAssessment https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/assessment/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/evidence/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test--dataset-1 http://purl.org/dc/terms/description age, exam weight and third-molar tooth-count codes https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/evidence/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test--dataset-1 http://purl.org/dc/terms/license public domain (U.S. government work) https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/evidence/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test--dataset-1 http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type https://w3id.org/delphi/ontology/EvidenceItem https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/evidence/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test--dataset-1 http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#label Dataset: NHANES 2015–2016 demographics and oral health dentition https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/evidence/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test--dataset-1 http://www.w3.org/ns/prov#wasDerivedFrom https://wwwn.cdc.gov/nchs/nhanes/continuousnhanes/default.aspx?BeginYear=2015 https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/evidence/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test--dataset-2 http://purl.org/dc/terms/description age, exam weight and third-molar tooth-count codes https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/evidence/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test--dataset-2 http://purl.org/dc/terms/license public domain (U.S. government work) https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/evidence/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test--dataset-2 http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type https://w3id.org/delphi/ontology/EvidenceItem https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/evidence/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test--dataset-2 http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#label Dataset: NHANES 2017–2018 demographics and oral health dentition https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/evidence/aristotle-ga05-25--claim-test--dataset-2 http://www.w3.org/ns/prov#wasDerivedFrom https://wwwn.cdc.gov/nchs/nhanes/continuousnhanes/default.aspx?BeginYear=2017 https://w3id.org/np/RAPXTIbvd0ive-f7bsTrCzhmyvpuzwqtJowlXuSb4rh2Q/provenance https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/agent/delphisci-claim-tester-grok-4-7 http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type http://www.w3.org/ns/prov#SoftwareAgent https://w3id.org/delphi/resource/agent/delphisci-claim-tester-grok-4-7 http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#label delphisci claim tester (Grok 4.7;
