Abstract
There are the various modalities of identification in forensic investigations that include fingerprints, DNA typing, biometrics etc. but some times the anomalies in the dental structures play an important role in identification of unknown remains where the soft tissues are destroyed beyond the visual recognition. This can be attributed to the resistance, stability and uniqueness of the human dentition. This paper shows few cases of dental anomalies with their clinical and radiographic characteristics. Recording of these conditions in patient’s dental records is not only important from ethical but forensic point of view.
