Highlights of the Webinar

  1. Identification of Victims: Forensic dentistry aids in identifying individuals in cases of mass disasters, accidents, or criminal acts where traditional methods like fingerprinting or DNA analysis are not feasible
  2. Bite Mark Analysis: Bite marks left on victims or objects at crime scenes can provide critical evidence for investigations.
  3. Age Estimation: Dentition plays a vital role in estimating the age of an individual, especially in cases involving minors or unidentified bodies.
  4. Expert Testimony: Forensic dentists often serve as expert witnesses in legal proceedings, providing testimony based on their analyses of dental evidence.
  5. Disaster Victim Identification (DVI): In the aftermath of natural disasters, terrorist attacks, or accidents resulting in mass casualties, forensic dentistry plays a crucial role in DVI efforts.
