Abstract:

Title: Overiew of Forensic Odontology

Name: Pooja Chakraborty

Abstract:
The field of forensic comprises multiple branches, namely forensic medicine, toxicology, physics and many more. Forensic odontology is also a  branch of forensic, though small and underrated subject but nevertheless less impactful. This subject is equally scientific and a strong evidence for achieving convictions. Like the vast clinical dentistry, forensic dentistry is also useful in Human Identification, in cases where Fingerprints and DNA fails. This subject largely depends on the availability of dental records for its successful completion. It has various components, the study of lip prints, rugae patterns, bite marks and also Age estimation. Forensic odontology works in the interest of justice. This subject is growing faster than expected and is even providing important convictions based on dental evidences. The session will be oriented towards the overview of the subject, with its application and scope.
