Forensic Dentistry

The primary purpose of forensic dentistry is to identify human remains, particularly in cases when identifying information is scarce or nonexistent.

Forensic dentists assist in identifying human remains by consulting dental records, using radiographs, ante- and post-mortem photographs, and DNA analysis.

Forensic dentists can determine the age, race, occupation, previous dental history, and socioeconomic status of unidentified human beings.
