orensic odontology, a discipline with historical roots dating back to 66 AD, plays a crucial role in identifying victims within the legal system. The term "forensic" is derived from the Latin word 'forum,' meaning a court of law, while "odontology" refers to the study of teeth. This specialized field of dentistry contributes to justice by carefully examining dental evidence and presenting essential findings. Dental records and the expertise of forensic dental surgeons are particularly important in identifying deceased individuals, especially in cases where visual or fingerprint methods are insufficient due to postmortem changes or injuries. Prosthodontists, specialists in dental prosthetics, are becoming increasingly indispensable in maintaining comprehensive records. In situations where fingerprinting is impractical, dental identification becomes a critical tool. Forensic odontology focuses on scrutinizing dental evidence for legal purposes, highlighting the uniqueness of teeth influenced by various factors. Individually tailored dental prosthetics serve as primary identifiers in forensic cases involving unidentified bodies, filling crucial gaps where fingerprint databases fall short. During major disasters like aviation accidents or natural calamities such as earthquakes, swift and accurate victim identification is imperative. Victims with intact or most of their teeth provide vital characteristics for effective forensic identification. Prosthodontists, equipped with diverse identification techniques, play a pivotal role in such investigations, particularly when victims have dental prosthetics, offering essential clues for identification. Comparing postmortem dental remains with pre-death records, such as X-rays, is a common practice to confirm identities. Denture markings play a significant role in this process, providing a swift and reliable method of identification, especially when other methods fail. While standardized methods may be lacking, dental practitioners are urged to maintain comprehensive ... |
