  • Role of Orthodontics in Forensic Odontology- a Social Responsibility Dentistry Section
    DOI: 10.7860/JCDR/2016/15798.7633 Review Article Role of Orthodontics in Forensic Odontology- A Social Responsibility Dentistry Section GIRIDHAR REDDY1, VINAY P REDDY2, MEENAKSHI SHARMA3, MONIKA AGGARWAL4 ABSTRACT Orthodontics like any other specialty has much to offer law enforcement in the detection and solution of crime or in civil proceedings. Forensic odontology often requires an interdisciplinary approach towards dentistry for the purpose of proper diagnosis of cases. In cases where the forensic odontologist has to establish a person’s identity, an orthodontist can be of great help at times. Teeth, with their anatomic/physiologic variations and therapy such as orthodontic treatment, restorations and prosthesis may record information that remains throughout life and beyond. The teeth may also be used as weapons for defense or offense and as such may leave information about the identity of the biter at the time of crime. Forensic odontology also plays an important role in the recognition of crime and abuse among people of all ages. Orthodontists like all other dental professionals can play a major role by maintaining proper dental records and thus providing important or vital information or clues to the legal authorities in order to help them in their search. Keywords: Bite marks, Cephalometric software, Forensic science, Orthodontic scars INTRODUCTION cases, virtually a certain identification tool. Even when data are Forensic science is the application of a broad spectrum of sciences sparse, it may result in recognized identification that can later be used in order to answer questions of interest to a legal system confirmed by more scientific techniques such as the DNA samping related to crime or civil action [1,2].

But official crime statistics measure only some types of crime, such as homicides and assaults, robberies, burglaries, larcenies, and auto thefts. We don't accurately know the extent of consumer fraud, embezzlement, bribery, and corruption, let alone drug sales, sexual assault, or child endangerment. New, "21st Century" crimes-child pornography, identity theft, e-crime, and transnational smuggling of weapons and people add to this complexity. So it is difficult to assess whether crime in the larger sense has actually declined, whether new types of crimes are on the rise, or the extent to which offenders have adapted and migrated into new, lucrative types of criminal activity. Panelists with diverse perspectives consider how we might find the "dark figures" of crimes, and arrest and prosecute the people behind them. What measurement systems need to be brought into being? How do we research these hidden operations and what are the solutions? How do we get ahead of the criminals adapting their methods? What does training for the 21st Century justice system have to accomplish? The panel promises a stimulating and provocative exchange for a diverse audience.

  • Csi: Forensic Challenge
    ACTIVITY OPTION CSI: FORENSIC CHALLENGE Step into the world of crime scene investigation to unravel a true crime using some of the latest forensic detective technology. Teams are presented with the facts and visual evidence of a real life crime. Their challenge, using a real process of investigation, is to solve the mystery and identify the murderer and motive. Our head of investigation will teach your team how to properly examine a simulated crime scene. Your team will also use their observational skills to create a composite sketch of a suspect using the same software used by police agencies around the world. They will then implicate the suspect after carrying out a variety of forensic techniques including simulated blood typing, blood spatter analysis, fingerprint analysis, glass analysis, luminol detection of simulated blood and DNA analysis. At the start of the event each team will be given their own "Crime File", which contains everything they need to know about the investigation. Each person is also given their own examination kit, comprising of a one piece white body suit, masks and gloves. After kitting up it is time for the RUNNING TIME: The ideal length of time for this activity is 2-3 investigation to commence! Your task is to investigate the crime, using hours. forensics to prove it. Participants will need to use a variety of forensic techniques to solve the MIN/MAX GROUP SIZE: Suitable for 15-150 participants. murder, including ballistics, blood spatter pattern analysis, fingerprint dusting, forensic dentistry, hair and fibre, photofit, and DNA.

The MFP assigns roles and responsibilities to OMI staff members, describes how OMI will coordinate response activities with other agencies, and provides specific instructions and contact information for varied mass fatality incidents (MFIs), from aviation disasters to chemical releases to influenza pandemics. In the event of a MFI, OMI will be tasked with removing remains from the scene of the MFI, certifying cause and manner of death, identifying decedents, and returning remains to next-of-kin when possible. These tasks will be accomplished in a manner that ensures the health and safety of responding personnel and respects the dignity of the victims throughout the process. The goal of the MFP is to coordinate OMI’s response to MFIs and outline preparations for the contingencies arising from large numbers of bodies, while maintaining day-to-day operations. When responding to a MFI, OMI will use the Incident Command System (ICS) to deploy resources and personnel and interact with other agencies responding to the event.

How to cite this article: Mounabati Mohapatra, Priyanka Sarangi and Sukanta Satapathy. Rugoscopy: A Fingerprint of Oral Cavity in Forensic Dentistry. 2019;12(1):19-21 Abstract It is a well-known fact that the pattern of palatal rugae is very unique, similar to fingerprints. Rugal length and transverse palatal rugal region width advances with age in both male and females. This advancement stops once the somatic growth stops. Also, there appears to be a significant correlation between rugae patterns and ethnicity. Palatal rugae pattern of an individual may be considered as a useful adjunct in the field of forensic dentistry for identification purposes. Hence, this review article aims at providing a detail insight into the role of palatal rugae in the field of forensic dentistry. Keywords: Palatal rugae, Forensic dentistry. Introduction anterior third of the palate”. They are also called “plica palatinae” or “rugae palatine” [4]. Con rming a person's indentity can be a typically The earliest reference to rugae was in anatomy complicated procedure, one of the main standpoints book by Winslow in 1732 and was rst illustrated of the forensic sciences.

College of Dental Sciences and Research, Mullana, Ambala, Haryana, India Abstract The discovery of DNA plays vital role in Human identification is one of the major fields of study and research in forensic science. This discovery was the basis for the development of techniques that allow characterizing each person’s individuality based on the DNA sequence. Individual identification of ancient human remains the most fundamental requisites for studies of paleo-population genetics, including kinship among ancient people, intra- and inter population structures in ancient times, and the origin of human populations. However, knowledge of these subjects has been based mainly on circumstantial archaeological evidence for kinship and intra population structure and on genetic studies of modern human populations. Tooth and several biological materials such as bone tissue, hair bulb, saliva, blood and other body tissues may be employed for isolation of DNA and accomplishment of laboratory tests for human identification. Here we describe individual identification of ancient humans by using short-nucleotide tandem repeats and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) extracted from a tooth as genetic markers. The application of this approach to kinship analysis shows clearly the presence or absence of kinship among the ancient remains examined.
