Abstract :

It has always been difficult to determine someone’s identity, whether they are alive or dead. It is important to carefully examine any evidence that may be used to confirm the identification. Records of previous treatments, together with knowledge of the genetics and morphology of the dentition, provide useful information. When more traditional forensic science tools have fallen short of providing a conclusive identification, forensic odontology has repeatedly been shown to be an essential tool. This is because teeth can tolerate environmental pressures and do not quickly deteriorate. The substances used to line root canals have also shown persistence in challenging circumstances and increased the variances that might aid in identification. This article intends to examine the different ways that root-filling materials and the area of endodontics might support forensic identification.
Keywords: root canal, forensic, radiographs
