The 1st formally reported case

of dental identification was that

of the 80 years old warrior John

Talbot (engelish general).

He fell in the battle of Castillon

in 1453.

The body of Jhon Talbot was

identified due to a gab tooth

extracted close to the time of his

demise.

The first dental evidence has been

accepted in US court was in Webster

Parkman case 1849 in Bostan.

The Webster-Parkman Murder is

noteworthy as one of the earliest uses

of forensic evidence to identify a body.

As the remains of Parkman had been

partially cremated, dental evidence

and bone fragments were used to

verify the remains.

The 1st forensic odontologist in

US was Dr. Paul Revere who

identified the extremed body of

Dr. Joseph Warren, in 1775The

identification was through a

bridge of silver and ivory that he

had constructed two years

previously.

1897 Dr.Oscar Amoedo (Father

of forensic odontology) wrote

the 1st book of forensic dentistry

Methods used in forensic dentistry:

Bite mark analysis:comparing dental impressions taken from a person's mouth to bite-mark impressions on the skin of the victim.

There are many factors to consider; including matching for striations whorls, indentation,pitting #oral_path_conf

2) Prosthesis & markers:

If the deceased has any prosthesis at the time of

death, it should be described in details. HOW it

helps?

Actually, this is done if the cast on which the

prosthesis was fabricated is available for comparison

3) Age estimation:

This could be done by either: Dental age estimation

Non-dental age estimation

dental age is determined by the stages of

development of the human deciduous and permanent

dentition

recent studies provide evidence that cementum exhibits annual

patterns of deposition.

Age may be estimated using a number of skeletal markers,

including the condition of the sternal end of the fourth rib, the

amount of cranial suture fusion, the appearance of the articular

surfaces of the pubic symphysis and more than this!
