Background: Dental professionals assist with legal and criminal matters through the practice of forensic dentistry which has evolved over the past century and is now a crucial component of undergraduate dental education in many nations. The need for formal training in the subject and its inclusion in dental curricula were acknowledged and addressed in the 1960s and 1970s. Aims: This study aimed to investigate the teaching of forensic dentistry in dental universities of Khartoum, Sudan, and to propose certain topics and teaching criteria to be standardized in forensic dentistry teaching in Sudan. Materials and methods: An observational, descriptive study was conducted, involving all undergraduate dental institutions in Khartoum, Sudan. Institutional websites were searched using the Google search engine to obtain the dental program curricula in English. The curricula were then analyzed to identify the presence of forensic odontology/dentistry teaching. Results: Of the 19 universities included in the study, five (26.3%) teach forensic dentistry in their undergraduate curricula, whereas 12 (63.1%) do not. Two universities (10.6%) indicated the presence of forensic dentistry teaching in their curricula but did not provide actual instruction. The teaching of forensic dentistry mainly occurred during the second, third, and fourth years of the dental program. Three universities considered it an independent subject, while two universities incorporated it into oral and maxillofacial pathology. Four universities provided lectures only, while one university combined lectures and practical sessions. Qualified forensic dentists taught the subject in four universities, while one university had general dentists as instructors. The main topics delivered are: (1) introduction to forensics, (2) human identification, (3) dental age estimation, (4) interpretation of bitemarks, (5) DNA in forensics, and (6) child abuse. Conclusion: Forensic dentistry training is currently undervalued in Sudan due to various limitations. It is recommended that all dental schools in Sudan offer opportunities for students to learn and become acquainted with forensic dentistry as part of their dental programs. The Sudanese Dental Council should establish formal coordination with academic institutions and experienced forensic dentists to ensure the quality and relevance of the proposed modular course within the educational system. Finally, additional topics including dental record-keeping and dental malpractice are suggested for inclusion in the current modules.

Dental evidence in forensic investigation has been in practice for many years. Forensic dentistry or forensic odontology predominantly involves the identification of human remains, by comparing the dental evidence of deceased persons recovered from the scene of an accident or a crime (post-mortem dental data) with the ante-mortem dental records. The use of dental identification lies in the fact that no two oral cavities are alike, and the teeth are unique for everyone. In addition, dental structures are not only the hardest and most protected structures in the body, but are also the most resistant to degradation due to environmental impact. Identification of a deceased individual using forensic odontology is possible with a higher degree certainty, as it is possible to apply multiple tools such as dental imaging, tongue print, lip print, rugoscopy, tooth signature, ameloglyphics, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) analysis, bite-marks, dentures and prosthesis, facial reconstruction, virtopsy and software applications. Since the role of a forensic dentist extends even beyond identification, especially in the absence of ante-mortem dental records for comparison, teeth become a determinant factor in identification, and determination of age, gender and ethnicity. Although several methods and techniques of identification have been described in forensic dentistry, there is no comprehensive resource that describes them all in detail. Therefore, this review paper aims to analyze and discuss the available methods of identification in forensic dentistry, their merits and limitations, and how they might be of help to the forensic dentists and pathologists.

Abstract Background: Forensic dentistry is a branch of forensic science that deals with the examination, analysis, and interpretation of dental evidence in legal investigations. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the knowledge, practice, and attitudes of Iraqi dentists toward forensic dentistry. Materials and Methods: A questionnaire was designed with four sections and distributed to dentists. The four sections were demographic, knowledge (assessed the dentists’ knowledge and consisted of 14 questions), practice (evaluated the dentists’ practices and consisted of six questions), and attitude (consisted of two questions to assess the dentists’ attitudes). For the knowledge, practice, and attitude sections, the answers were either “yes” (correct), “no,” or “I don’t know” (incorrect). The correct answer frequencies were calculated, and the mean scores of responses were compared among the different variables. Results: A total of 414 dentists responded, including 196 male dentists and 218 female dentists. The mean age of the responders was 32.57 years, and the responders were divided according to age into: 304 (≤40 years), and 110 dentists (˃40 years), according to qualifications into: 168 (postgraduate) and 246 (graduate), and according to experience years: 228 (≤10 years) and 186 (˃10 years). The questions related to using teeth as indicators of age received the highest number of correct answers, whereas the use of palatal rugae and lips in forensic dentistry received the lowest scores. Conclusion: Iraq dentists had limited knowledge, practice, and attitude about forensic dentistry. Therefore, it is important for undergraduate and postgraduate programs, as well as official training courses, to focus more attention on forensic dentistry.

Abstract: Human identification continues to pose a significant challenge, with thousands of individuals or corpses remaining unidentified each year, as reported by the National Missing and Unidentified Person System (NamUs). Forensic odontology becomes exceptionally crucial when visual/facial identification and fingerprinting fail, such as in disasters or decomposed remains. By leveraging the expertise of dentists, forensic odontology makes a valuable contribution to the legal system. High-quality dental records are paramount for human identification. Forensic dentistry provides scientific data for legal proceedings. The robust structure of teeth and resilient restorative materials are pivotal in the identification process. Prosthodontics, especially for denture wearers, plays a significant role, with equipment like denture labeling gaining popularity. Specialization in prosthodontics is vital for understanding dental materials, labeling techniques, palatal rugae patterns, bite marks, and lip prints. Application of effective methods in forensic odontology is of paramount importance in identifying individuals. Remarkably, prosthetics in the field of forensic dentistry remains relatively unexplored and often overlooked, even in Indonesia, despite its significant potential in the realm of forensics. In conclusion, forensic identification using prosthodontic tools such as labeling or marking on dentures can provide crucial identification clues. Dental marking techniques namely surface modification techniques and inclusion techniques, have their respective advantages and disadvantages. Keyword: human identification; forensic odontology; denture; identification methods Abstrak: Identifikasi manusia tetap menjadi tantangan signifikan, dengan ribuan individu atau jenazah yang tidak teridentifikasi setiap tahunnya, seperti yang dilaporkan oleh National Missing and Unidentified Person System (NamUs). Odontologi forensik menjadi sangat penting ketika identifikasi visual/wajah dan sidik jari gagal, seperti pada bencana atau jenazah yang terurai. Dengan memanfaatkan keahlian dokter gigi, odontologi forensik memberikan kontribusi pada sistem hukum. Catatan gigi berkualitas tinggi sangat penting untuk identifikasi manusia. Odontologi forensik menyediakan data ilmiah untuk proses hukum. Struktur gigi yang kuat dan bahan restoratif yang tahan terhadap kerusakan menjadi kunci dalam identifikasi. Prostodonti, khususnya bagi pemakai gigi palsu, memainkan peran yang signifikan, dengan peralatan seperti label gigi palsu semakin populer. Spesialisasi dalam bidang prostodontik sangat penting dalam memahami bahan gigi, teknik penandaan, pola rugae palatal, bekas gigitan, dan bekas bibir. Menerapkan metode-metode yang efektif dalam odontologi forensik sangat penting untuk mengidentifikasi individu. Secara mencolok, prostetik dalam ranah odontologi forensik tetap relatif belum tersentuh, sering kali terabaikan di Indonesia meskipun memiliki potensi signifikan dalam dunia forensik. Simpulan studi ini ialah identifikasi forensik dengan menggunakan peralatan prostodontik seperti pelabelan atau pemberian tanda pada gigi tiruan dapat memberikan petunjuk identifikasi penting. Teknik penandaan gigi yaitu surface modification technique dan inclusion technique dengan keunggulan dan kekurangan masing-masing.

Aim: To investigate and analyze legal conflicts in forensic dentistry of Ukraine. Materials and Methods: A comparative research method for determining the common and distinctive features of the legal regulation of forensic dental expertise as a subcluster in the legislation of Ukraine. The descriptive (monographic) method reveals the problematic aspects of forensic dental examination through the lens of local normative and general normative connotations. The structural-functional research method made it possible to systematize the peculiarities of forensic medical and forensic dental expert activity. Conclusions: The analysis of legal conflicts made it possible to come to the following conclusions, that in Ukraine today there is no specific legal act that would regulate the aspects of performing dental activities. Forensic dental examination in Ukraine, in accordance with the legislation, is an examination of the actions and inactions of the dentist. The adoption of normative legal acts in the field of dental activity and forensic dental examination in Ukraine would make it possible to determine the specifics of establishing facts and circumstances that indicate a violation of the patient’s rights.

Objective: Age estimation is an important element in the forensic investigation, being one of the data primary sources to establish the identity of living people or unknown mortal remains. The methods used for this purpose are those based on individuals’ bones and teeth development. Since dental radiographs assume major role in the forensic context, this article aims to show, by means of literature review, the importance of dental radiographs as an aid in human identification process, particularly in the age estimation.Conclusion: The forensic dental examination contributes significantly to human identification, no matter if it is a living, in advanced decay, skeletonized or charred body. Therefore, it is important to raise awareness among dental professionals about the need to properly record and archive the information and data obtained during the daily clinical routine, since the greatest support for identification in forensic dentistry, mainly the individual’s age estimation, comes from clinical documentation produced daily by clinicians, especially dental radiographs.

The heavy casualties associated with mass disasters necessitate substantial resources to be managed. The unexpectedly violent nature of such occurrences usually remains a problematic amount of victims that urgently require to be identified by a reliable and economical method. Conventional identification methods are inefficient in many cases such as plane crashes and fire accidents that have damaged the macrobiometric features such as fingerprints or faces. An appropriate recognition method for such cases should use features more resistant to destruction. Forensic dentistry provides the most appropriate available method for the successful identification of victims using careful techniques and precise data interpretation. Since bones and teeth are the most persistent parts of the demolished bodies in sudden mass disasters, scanning and radiographs are unrepeatable parts of forensic dentistry. Forensic dentistry as a scientific method of human remain identification has been considerably referred to be efficient in disasters. Forensic dentistry can be used for either “sex and age estimation,” “Medical biotechnology techniques,” or “identification with dental records,” etc. The present review is aimed at discussing the development and implementation of forensic dentistry methods for human identification. For this object, the literature from the last decade has been searched for the innovations in forensic dentistry for human identification based on the PubMed database.

Forensic dentistry is the handling, examination and evaluation of dental evidence in criminal justice cases. Palatoscopy or rugoscopy is gaining importance in forensic dentistry due to many reasons, the most important being that the rugae are well protected in the oral cavity by the cheeks and arches. Rugae are found to be individualistic just like dermatoglyphics. The third most important factor being that they are easy to record. This article deals with the various classification, methods of recording and the clinical implication of rugoscopy in forensic dentistry.

Forensic Odontology is a branch of forensic science involves in human identification through dental tissues or more specifically teeth when there is the destruction of body tissues in criminal mass disasters. The importance of Forensic Dentistry in recent days lies mainly when there is little remaining material to perform such identification has led dentists working with forensic investigators to become more aware with the new molecular biology technologies. In the last few years, DNA analysis methods are more commonly applied in the forensic cases due to its uniqueness in identification of human remains even in the deceased state. DNA is a genetic material which is unique to each individual. In oral cavity and mainly in tooth structure DNA is found to be in abundant and hence it can be an excellent source of genomic DNA. Recently, DNA profiling has high reliability and is accepted as legal proofs in courts. This article mainly focuses on an overview of DNA and their applications in the last few years, highlighting its importance in forensic investigation.

A dentist's role often involves screening, diagnosing, preventing, and treating a variety of oral diseases. However, it is equally important in both the medical and the judicial field through the identification of unidentified deceased individuals. For this reason, the science of Forensic Dentistry has been developed, the contribution of which is valuable, especially in cases of criminal acts or mass disasters, where the number of victims is high. Its work is characterized as demanding, in which case the immediate and effective action of specially trained and experienced professionals is necessary. The methods of identification used work with outline the collection, careful examination, radiographic and photographic imaging and recording of post-mortem evidence of teeth and their impressions on the skin alongside the jaws, the lips and the palatal rugae of mucosa in order to be compared with existing ante-mortem and to draw conclusions regarding the racial and age identification of the deceased as well as finding other useful information about him/her. The forensic dentist's contribution to the administration of justice is essential through keeping detailed records of patients and excellent cooperation with local authorities towards a valid and reliable identification process.

Abstract: Forensic dentistry is the field which is a combination of forensic and dentistry. In this we go for principles used in dentistry or dentistry forthe use in judiciary. It is one field inwhich we collectthe evidence related to dentistry and analyze them for the purpose of investigation. In a crime scene or a disaster situation a lot of destruction occurs. It becomes important to determine the identity of an individual and we can say it is the identity of the deceased. This study is being conducted based on previous research and literature presented by various research scholars. When it comes to a crime scene where we do not get the victim or culprit but we find the dentalevidence and also in cases of mass disasters, catastrophic events, industrial disasters where identification is necessary if we found the dental evidence, they can help a lot in determining age, gender partial identity can be known through this evidence. Many methods are there to determine identity through dental evidence and also apart from dental evidence we have orthometric methods but dental evidence is found to be more cheap, easy, fast methods. In this we have discussed how DNA is extracted from the teeth and it's further processing so that it will help in establishing someone's identity.

Teeth can be put to a lot more use than just understanding and evolving dentistry. Teeth can withstand tremendous pressure and extreme conditions providing for an incomparable piece of evidence. The comparison of the ante-mortem and the post-mortem evidences can be used to establish an identity of the required personnel. The oral cavity provides an excellent field to work on when it comes to human identification, age estimation and sex determination. The Bichat’s fat pad, lips, maxillary bones and the teeth protect the palatal rugae hence making them resistant to decomposition and incineration. The palatal rugae are characteristic to every individual. Just like the fingerprints, lip prints are permanent and constant for every individual. Bite marks can be found either on the attacker or the perpetrator. Both lip prints and bite marks account for important evidence for human identification found at the site of crime in the cases of sexual abuse. As the oral cavity serves as a useful source of DNA, latter can be extracted from saliva, the oral mucosal cells and the teeth. This DNA is used for PCR analysis. Dental structures can prove as useful indictors in determining the individual’s chronological age by analysing the tooth development. The sexual dimorphism elicited by various teeth of the human dentition play a major role in sex determination of the individual. The various recent advances like- facial reconstruction, dental identification methods, tongue prints, ameloglyphics make forensic dentistry a convenient and an effective tool in human identification. Forensic dentistry should not only be restricted to the dentists but various team involved in investigations and justice should also be exposed to this arena to avoid any biased and negligent decision making.

Background: Commitment to professional ethics is important for all medical practitioners, including dentists. This skill should be taught to students during their studies. The purpose of this study was to investigate the moral skills of dentistry students and dentists.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on 160 dentistry students and dentists. The Moral skills Inventory (MSI) Questionnaire was cross-culturally adapted and used in this study. The MSI was developed by Chamber’s and has 40 items covering four domains including: moral sensitivity, moral reasoning, moral integrity, and moral courage. Each domain’s scores ranged from zero to 20. The results were analyzed using SPSS software version 21.
Results: comparing with dentists, dentistry students got higher score in moral sensitivity domain (5.5 ± 3.64 vs. 3.87 ± 2.22) and moral integrity (6.4 ± 3.2 vs. 5.78 ± 2.72). However, in moral reasoning, dentists got higher score than students (15.40 ± 2.11 vs. 13.92 ± 2.35). In the moral courage domain, students’ score was 13.47 ± 3.10 and dentists’ was 13.62 ± 2.96. The mean±SD of total score of moral skills in all domains was 39.3± 4.50 for dental students, 38.68 ± 4.48 for dentists, and 38.99 ± 4.49 for all participants.
Conclusion: The professional ethics skills are relatively low in all four domains among dentistry students and dentists. Workshops, reviewing the syllables of medical ethics course, and practicing moral skills during training courses and monitoring professional performance can help to improve moral skill.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among dental practitioners to assess the awareness regarding FO and dental record-keeping in clinical practice. Results: A total of 380 responses were received. Results showed that only 2% of the respondents studied the subject of forensic dentistry at the undergraduate or postgraduate level. 88 % of the individuals were interested in receiving formal training in forensic dentistry and 96% recommended the subject of forensic dentistry to be introduced as a separate postgraduate training program in Pakistan. More than half of the respondents reported a lack of record-keeping in their clinical practice. Conclusions: Limited awareness was observed regarding FO among dental practitioners in Pakistan primarily due to lack of exposure to the subject. In terms of dental record keeping, a limited number of practitioners in our study reported adhering to it. Hence, there is a need to develop measures to promote awareness and knowledge about FO and dental record management in Pakistan. Keywords: Forensic odontology, awareness, education, dental records, dental identification.

Introduction Accurate age data are always necessary in medicine and dentistry, and are also important to assess maturity and estimate age in a number of disciplines, such as forensic odontology, paediatric and preventive dentistry, orthodontics, etc. Aim This investigation determines the accuracy of dental age estimation and its comparison with chronological age by two methods: Demirjian's and Willems’. Materials and methods Tooth development was assessed in seven left mandibular teeth from 215 orthopantomograms (OPGs) belonging to healthy children aged 6–15 years selected by convenience sampling, from patients of the Sudha Rustagi College of Dental Sciences & Research, Faridabad, and were staged according to Demirjian's and Willems’ scales. The statistical analysis was performed using the unpaired ‘ t’-test and the correlation was analysed using Karl Pearson's correlation coefficients test. Results Overall, Willems’ method was found to be more accurate with a mean age overestimation of 0.36 years (SD = 0.38) in boys and 0.24 years (SD = 0.36) in girls, and Demirjian's method produced a mean overestimation of 0.66 years (SD = 0.41) in boys and 0.56 years (SD = 0.43) in girls, respectively. Also, correlation between the two methods revealed a high coefficient value, 0.9947 for boys and 0.9944 for girls ( P < 0.05). Conclusion Despite the favourable result of Willems’ method in comparison with Demirjian's method, this study demonstrated a high correlation coefficient between both chronological and obtained dental age, thus confirming their potential applicability in clinical practice and forensic dentistry.

An air disaster is a tragic event, usually brutal and unforeseeable, which often involves human and material losses. The investigation of such events requires extraordinary measures in order to apply state-of-the-art forensic technology, aiming to identify both the causes of the accident and the victims. Forensic dentistry is among the most important methods of identification, as it allows the use of techniques that can identify an individual based on the systematic study of corpses or bone remains, physiological and hereditary aspects, and, the specific variations of a person's teeth.
The aim of this paper is to review the available elements that can be used within the field of forensic dentistry to identify corpses and bone remains in the event of an air disaster.

Tongue print or lingual impression is a new biometric authentication method used in forensics. Every tongue has its own lingual impression, because of its unique shape and texture. Tongue print is the information carried on the exposed portion of the tongue, that is shape and texture all together. Many studies have been researched into preparing a proper algorithm for tongue image analysis. Digital photographs, lingual moulded impressions, rugoscopy, cheiloscopy, sublingual vein analysis, ultrasound, histological analysis are some of the methods of tongue print collection. Forensic dentistry deals with the proper handling, examination, and evaluation of dental evidence which will be presented in the interest of justice. With the increase in identity fraud and emphasis on security, there is an urgent need to identify humans locally and remotely on a routine basis. Hence newer advancements and research on the potential of tongue prints, as an authenticated forensic tool has to be done.

Indonesia is an archipelagic country bordered by tectonically active zones with intense seismicity and volcanism. This condition is often associated with a high-risk situation of disasters in Indonesia. Forensic identification is a necessary procedure to reveal an individual’s identity. An identity, including sex and age, is needed to build a conclusion of human identification. Dental age estimation is a subfield of forensic odontology which focuses on establishing an individual’s age. Tooth development, biochemical, and postformation changes are the parameters for estimating dental age. This review discusses the applicable dental age estimation method for children and adolescents in Indonesia. Several articles that have previously studied dental age estimation in Indonesia were reviewed for this manuscript. On reviewing these articles, it was found that the Demirjian method, the Willems method, and the Al Qahtani method are useful in this population with higher accuracy than other methods.

Background and objective: Age estimation is an important tool when dealing with human remains or undocumented minors. Although the skull, the skeleton or the hand-wrist are used in age estimation as maturity indicators, they often present a lack of good conditions for a correct identification or estimation. Few systematic reviews (SRs) have been recently published; therefore, this umbrella review critically assesses their level of evidence and provides a general, comprehensive view. Materials and methods: Considering the review question “What is the current evidence on age determination approaches in Forensic Dentistry?” an electronic database search was conducted in four databases (PubMed, Cochrane, WoS, LILACS) up to December 2022, focusing on SRs of age estimation through forensic dentistry procedures. The methodological quality was analyzed using the measurement tool to assess SRs criteria (AMSTAR2). Results: Eighteen SRs were included: five of critically low quality, six of low quality, three of moderate quality and four of high quality. The SRs posited that Willems’ method is more accurate and less prone to overestimation; most methods seem to be geographically sensitive; and 3D-imaging and artificial intelligence tools demonstrate high potential. Conclusions: The quality of evidence on age estimation using dental approaches was rated as low to moderate. Well-designed clinical trials and high-standard systematic reviews are essential to corroborate the accuracy of the different procedures for age estimation in forensic dentistry.

Forensic odontology is a branch of dentistry which deals with proper handling, examination and evaluation of dental evidence, with proper presentation of dental findings in the interest of justice. Tooth is the hardest tissue in the body and is most resistant to post-mortem deterioration. Dental pattern for each individual is distinct and helps in identification of victims during mass disasters, abuse and crimes. Conventional methods used in identification are dental record maintenance, dental imaging, bite marks analysis, Cheiloscopy and Rugoscopy. In addition, recent concepts have been introduced such as facial reconstruction, denture identification, DNA profiling, tongue prints and comparison microscopy. DNA analysis is a technique which involves DNA which is either mitochondrial DNA or genomic DNA.The common methods used in DNA analysis are PCR, restrictions fragments length polymorphism method, short tandem repeats typing, etc.

Subject. One of the urgent problems of modern health care is to provide quality and effective dental care. The percentage of complications as a result of deficiencies in the provision of dental care, leading to the development of serious pathologies and deteriorating the quality of life of patients is growing every year. High rates of emergence of new technologies in dentistry, new dental materials and equipment do not always allow each practicing dentist to achieve a high professional level of assistance when working with new methods and means of treatment of caries and its complications. In this regard, endodontic care is not provided at the proper level.
Goal. A retrospective analysis of medical documentation (comprehensive examinations) was conducted to identify the incidence of medical care deficiencies and adverse outcomes in endodontic dentistry.
Methodology. A retrospective analysis of 19 complex forensic examinations was carried out to identify the frequency of deficiencies in medical care and adverse outcomes in endodontic treatment of teeth.
Results. It was found that the most common shortcomings in the endodontic treatment of teeth are the lack of x-rays before and after endodontic treatment, removal of filling material for the apex of the tooth, non-compliance with the rules of asepsis and antiseptics in the treatment of patients, unjustified removal of dental pulp.
Findings. A retrospective analysis of adverse outcomes in endodontic dentistry according to comprehensive examinations revealed significant deficiencies at the stages of diagnosis and treatment, which led to medical errors and further legal proceedings.

Ground sections of teeth or bone are considered best solutions for the study of any hard tissues in the study of histopathology. Various studies have been performed like progression of dental caries, enamel studies, dentin studies, cementum annulation studies, bone morphologies, age determinaton studies, etc. It is important study part in any forensic studies where mass disasters occurring as natural phenomenon of cyclonic events, earth quakes, floods and volcanic explosions and airplane accidents, industrial accidents and terror related acts. Forensic dentistry has played a vital role and many medico-legal cases are solved by studying the teeth. Ground sections study is important in any part of research. For a dentist this phenomenon is less understood, and this article brings in limelight various methods and study pattern of ground sections of teeth. With this knowledge an understanding and performing ground sections of teeth becomes a well start for dental graduates. Various other modalities in histopathology are decalcification studies, histopathological staining procedures, special stains procedures, immunohistochemistry. All the histopathological modalities have their own importance and are used appropriately in the study of oral pathology.

Aims: The aims of this study were to assess dental students’ knowledge and attitude with regard to forensic odontology and to determine students’ opinions in the current dental curriculum. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among dental students at one of the main dental colleges in the United Arab Emirates; only dental students on their final year and internship were invited to participate. An online self-administrated questionnaire was used, which consisted of a set of 15 questions. All the data were entered into Microsoft Excel and then transferred into SPSS. Results: A total of 276 dental students contributed to this study. The highest percentage of correct responses stated by the students was related to the estimation of individuals’ age and estimation of dental age based on radiograph and eruption status. However, there were clear deficiencies in students’ knowledge in relation to other aspects such as gender identification and lip-print, palatal rugae as an indicator in forensic identification. A high percentage (84.8%) had no formal education in the field of forensic odontology. Moreover, 93.1% of the students agreed that their present knowledge about forensic odontology is inadequate. Most of the participants (95.0%) agreed upon the necessity of adding a module on forensic odontology to the current curriculum. Conclusion: Our study revealed inadequate knowledge among dental students in relation to forensic odontology. This lack of knowledge among them attributed to the lack of formal training, and lack of forensic odontology as a part of dental curriculum. Forensic odontology must be added to the undergraduate curriculum as a separate subject to enrich students’ knowledge and awareness toward medico-legal cases in their future careers.

Background: Forensic dentistry requires interdisciplinary knowledge since the data obtained from the oral cavity can contribute to identify an individual or provide the information needed in a legal process. Identification is a major problem facing forensic practitioners, DNA and fingerprints are highly useful but sometimes are not easily collected from the crime scene. Lip print could be useful in this field the lip prints are unique and distinguishable for every individual like fingerprints. The external surface of lips has many elevations and depressions forming a characteristic pattern called lip prints, examination of which is known as Cheiloscopy. However, there are many well-known implanted methods of human identification. Historical Background: The biological phenomenon of systems of grooves on the red part of human lips was first noted by anthropologists, Fischer was the first to describe it in 1902. The use of lip prints in personal identification was first recommended in France by Edmond Locard. Conclusion: This literature search covering a part of identifying a person using lip print, lip prints may also be used in detection work, being the source of criminalistic information. A lip print at the scene of a crime can be a basis for conclusions as to the character of the event, the number of the people involved, sexes, cosmetics used, habits, occupational traits, and the pathological changes of lips themselves.

Forensic odontology is one of the most reliable methods of identifying victims because it can withstand extreme environments and for a long time. One of the applications of the forensic branch is age estimation. One method of estimating age is the Cameriere method. This method uses a linear regression formula to calculate the estimated age in children by measuring the open apical using a panoramic radiograph. This study aimed to determine the difference between age estimation using the Cameriere method and chronological age in Radiodiagnostic Laboratory of the Faculty of Dentistry Brawijaya University patients. This study was an analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design 60 samples aged 5-15 years. Tooth measurements were calculated using the Image J application and then entered into Excel Program to calculate the estimated age using the Cameriere method. The Wilcoxon test showed there was no significant difference between the age estimation using the Cameriere method and the chronological age of the Radiodiagnostic Laboratory of the Faculty of Dentistry Brawijaya University patients (p> 0.05). Thus Cameriere could be used as a way to estimate the age of children aged 5-15 years in the Radiodiagnostic Laboratory of the Faculty of Dentistry Brawijaya University.

Objective: This study evaluates timetable of calcification stages of the second permanent molars (SPMs) based on panoramic radiographic findings from a selected group of Iranian patients. Methods: This descriptive, analytical and cross sectional study uses 715 panoramic radiographs of subjects with optimal quality between 5 to 17 years of age (n=60 for each age group) whom were selected from the referrals to the departments of Orthodontics and Pediatric Dentistry of at Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Iran. Patients with systemic diseases or any kind of syndromes were excluded. Calcification stages were determined based on Demirjian's classification. Data were analyzed using generalized estimating equation (GEE). Results: Only 20% of SPMs of 5 year-olds were in their 2nd stage of calcification and the remaining showed higher stages. The mean age of crown completion was around 8.5 years while the mean ages of root completion for the open and closed apices were 13 years and 3 months and 15.5 years, respectively. Also calcification occurred at earlier ages among girls. Conclusion: Timetable of calcification of SPMs is useful to predict the onset of puberty. Demirjian’s classification well matches Iranian population for determining calcification stage of SMPs. Keywords: Permanent Molar, Tooth Calcification, Forensic Dentistry, Iranian Population Key Messages: Mean age at different stages of calcification of the second permanent molars could be effective in forensic dentistry as well as for diagnostic and treatment purposes.

The estimation of sex from osteological and dental records has long been an interdisciplinary field of dentistry, forensic medicine and anthropology alike, as it concerns all the above mentioned specialties. The aim of this article is to review the current literature regarding methods used for sex estimation based on the skull and the teeth, covering articles published between January 2015 and July 2022. New methods and new approaches to old methods are constantly emerging in this field, therefore resulting in the need to summarize the large amount of data available. Morphometric, morphologic and biochemical analysis were reviewed in living populations, autopsy cases and archaeological records. The cranial and odontological sex estimation methods are highly population-specific and there is a great need for these methods to be applied to and verified on more populations. Except for DNA analysis, which has a prediction accuracy of 100%, there is no other single method that can achieve such accuracy in predicting sex from cranial or odontological records.

Nowadays, anthropometric researches have confidently taken its place in medicine. They are useful not only for health assessment, but also are used in many fields: forensic medicine (to estimate the age of the subject), forensic dentistry (it is an interdiscipline of forensic medicine and dentistry) for the identification of individual and age estimation, dentistry (anthropometric diagnostic methods of dentognathic anomalies and deformations, and there is a potential correlation among number of teeth, chewing ability and anthropometric profile), pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, as well as for the diagnosis of overweight (important indicators of nutritional status in the children and adults), for sports control and for the standardization purpose. The symptoms of many diseases are expressed in anthropometric changes. Unfortunately, in Ukraine there is still no generally accepted translation of anthropometric terms from Ukrainian into English. Often for the same medical anthropological term, different names and definitions are used in foreign scientific works. Therefore, the aim of the work was to unify and standardize the translation of rarely used anthropometric terms from Ukrainian into English, as well as determination of the place of the anthropometric point measurement and its schematic representation. We have used the standardized techniques proposed by Shaparenko P.P. and Burikh M.P. (2000), set out in the “Anthropometric data analysis sets manual” (1994), in the works of Hobbs P.C. (1975) and Brinkley J.F with co-authors (2016), where some anthropometric terms were described that are used when measuring the head, determining the height above the floor of some points of the trunk and upper limb of a person, and anthropometric parameters of the hand. The conclusion is made about the correctness of the proposed translation from Ukrainian into English, considering the specialized terminology. We hope that in the future this list will be supplemented with the new terms related to measurements of the auricle, upper and lower extremities.

There are several methods used in the identification process of human remains. The most of them are based on comparing of antemortem and postmortem data available. Although the technique of fingerprinting is considered more accurate in many cases, it cannot be used when the bodies are mutilated, decomposed, burned, or fragmented. This article aims to compare the metric values obtained by Galvão (1994) and Saliba (2001) to differentiate male and female through dry skulls, using the measurement of the Radiocef Studio 2 Program. It was used 16 teleradiographs (11 females and 5 males). The linear measurements used in this article were: 1. The bodies stature of the mandible; and 2. Distance Nasium-Front Nasal Spine. Several radiological techniques are used to aid the human identification process for determining sex, ethnic group, and age. The analyses of X-rays and Computer Tomography (CT) scans, antemortem and postmortem, have been an important tool for human identification in forensic dentistry, especially with the refinement of techniques acquired with the advancement of radiology and CT scans. We concluded that the knowledge of the best method by forensic dentists with a careful application of the technique and report’s interpretation is essential to fulfilling the necessary characteristics for a successful identification of sex using skull measures.

Purpose. Gender determination is considered to be an important step in the reconstruction of the biological profile in forensic medicine. Maxillary sinus can be used for identification of sex when other methods are indecisive. Computed tomography (CT) provides an excellent method for examining maxillary sinuses. Hence the aim of the study was to determine the accuracy of gender determination using maxillary sinus with CT. Materials and Methods. CT images were used to measure the mediolateral, superoinferior, and anteroposterior dimensions and the volume of the maxillary sinuses in 100 patients (50 males and 50 females) to determine the gender of an individual for forensic identification. Discriminative analysis was done using the values derived and the t-test for independent samples was used to compare these values in males and females. Results. The accuracy rate was found to be 84% in males and 92% in females with the mean accuracy of 88%. Conclusion. Our study concludes that gender determination can be done using measurements of maxillary sinus through CT when other methods are unavailable. The prediction rate can be increased by including volume of the maxillary sinus.

Introduction: Paranasal sinuses can be defined as air-filled cavities lined with mucosa. Although there is a limited number of previous studies that have addressed the relationship between anatomical variations in these sinuses and dentistry, it is essential to emphasize the significance of morphofunctional knowledge of the maxillary sinus (MS) and frontal sinus (FS) for various dental specialties. Objectives: To investigate and analyze anatomical variations in selected paranasal sinuses (MS and FS) from the embryonic period to advanced age, and to correlate them with their diverse applications in dental practice. Methods: Electronic databases PubMed, Lilacs (via Bvsalud), and Scielo were consulted using the descriptors: "anatomical variation," "maxillary sinus," "frontal sinus," "dentistry," and their English counterparts. Initially, a total of 334 published articles were found, and after reading the abstracts and applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, 19 articles were analyzed. Results: The main morphological variations found included changes in dimension, number, characteristics of septations, and physiological pneumatization, which vary with age, sex, and facial sides. Among the dental implications, notable aspects include associated pathologies, techniques for maxillary sinus elevation in implantology, craniofacial profile relationships, connections with orthodontics and forensic dentistry, imaging techniques, and general surgical treatments. Conclusion: The literature reviewed suggests that the morphology of the sinuses analyzed directly influences dental practice, contributing to the improvement of clinical, forensic, surgical, and other procedures. However, studies involving the subject matter are still scarce, thus requiring further investigations.

Aims: This study aims to verify the applicability of modern dental technologies and their related principles of use to the forensic sciences in the field of personal identification. Background: Personal identification has always had a major role in many legal and administrative actions regarding both living and death beings. The techniques used are much less advanced than the technologies potentially available. Objective: Modern technologies, available to the daily dental clinic practice, as intraoral scanners, combined in particular to the specialist skill in orthodontics, can help redefine the methods of personal identification according to the levels of accuracy, trueness and feasibility greater than those applied in traditional forensic dentistry. Methods: 23 corpses (12F;11M) have been selected for intraoral scanning with the Carestream 3500® digital device. The superimposition of initial and late digital models, digital models and radiographs (orthopantomography and full mouth periapical films) has been evaluated to verify the stability of some structures as palatal rugae after death and to assess intraoral scanning as a successful comparative method between antemortem and post-mortem records (digital models or radiographs). Obtained results were subjected to statistical analysis by the t-student test and X-square test with Yates correction (p<0.05). Results: After death, palatal rugae significatively change especially in mouths with restorations/prosthesis/missing teeth. The percentages of correct matching between scans and radiographs are very higher (up 90%; p<0.05). Conclusion: This study has been set up to study and develop new, reliable and fast methods of personal identification that can surpass many of the issues seen with the other techniques by a modern rugoscopy, a modern radiographic-digital comparison and virtual oral autopsy.

Introduction: Crown width and crown length provides significant information on human evolution as well as in forensic and clinical dentistry. The width-to-length ratio or individual tooth proportion (ITP) of maxillary anterior teeth considered as an important factors for dental aesthetics and harmonic teeth arrangement. The goal of this research is to establish if there is any significant difference in crown width, length, width/length ratio of permanent maxillary anterior teeth between male and female students in Faculty of dentistry Padjadjaran University Bandung, Indonesia. Methods: The method used for this research was analytical statistical approach. Total sampling technique with criteria was used to determine the sample size from the total population of students of Faculty of Dentistry Padjadjaran University from batch 2012 to 2014. The data was analyzed using Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Independent Two Sample T test and Mann-Whitney test. Result: there is difference in crown width, length, width/length ratio of permanent maxillary anterior teeth between male and female students in Faculty of Dentistry Padjadjaran University. Conclusion: There is significant difference in crown width and length of permanent maxillary anterior teeth between male and female students in Faculty of Dentistry Padjadjaran University, but there is no significant difference in crown width/length ratio of permanent maxillary anterior teeth between male and female students in Faculty of Dentistry Padjadjaran University Bandung, Indonesia.Keywords: Crown Width, Length, Width/length.

Texto completoResumen
Identification of victims in a disaster is a challenging process and requires use of both primary and secondary identifiers. Development of teeth is one of the routinely used methods of age estimation and helps in establishing deceased biological profile. Two children who lost their lives in 2014 in Nepal Airlines crash, were looked for the dental developmental status. One of the children had primary dentition, while the other had mixed dentition. This helped us in estimating age of these individuals reconciled with the chronological age provided by the relatives. This led to the identification of both the children, thus, emphasizing teeth as important means of identification in any disaster.
