Forensic odontology is the branch of dentistry that focuses on the application of dental science to the legal system. It involves the identification of human remains, bite mark analysis, and the determination of age, sex, and other characteristics based on dental records. Forensic odontologists often assist in criminal investigations, disaster victim identification, and mass casualty events by comparing dental records with unidentified bodies. Their expertise also plays a crucial role in identifying victims of natural disasters, accidents, and other incidents where traditional methods might fail. By examining dental characteristics such as unique fillings, tooth patterns, and wear, forensic odontologists can provide critical information to help solve cases and bring closure to families.
