Forensic dentistry is the application of dental knowledge and techniques in the legal system. It is a branch of forensic medicine that deals with the identification of individuals from dental records and bite marks left on victims or suspects.
Forensic dentists use a variety of methods to identify individuals, including dental radiography, dental charts, and bite mark analysis. They may also be called upon to testify in court as expert witnesses in cases involving dental identification.
One of the most common applications of forensic dentistry is in identifying human remains. When other forms of identification such as fingerprints or DNA are not available, dental records can be used to identify a person. Forensic dentists also play a role in investigating cases of child abuse, elder abuse, and mass disasters.
Forensic dentists may also be involved in bite mark analysis which is a method of identifying an individual based on their teeth marks left on a victim or an object. This technique can be used to link a suspect to a crime scene or to eliminate suspects from an investigation.
Forensic dentistry is a specialized field that requires knowledge of both dentistry and the legal system. Forensic dentists must have a strong background in dental anatomy, materials, and techniques, as well as knowledge of legal procedures and the rules of evidence.
It plays an important role in criminal investigations and in the administration of justice by providing reliable and accurate identification of individuals and linking suspects to crime scenes.
