Abstract :

Forensic is any term related to court of jurisdiction. Forensic medicine relates the application of knowledge of principles with practitioners of medical and para medical sciences for the purpose of administration of law. It includes various disciplines such as forensic toxicology, forensic engineering, forensic anthropology and forensic odontology. Forensic dentistry includes various odontological parameters such as DNA fingerprinting, bite mark identification, rugoscopy and cheiloscopy but these markers are of little use in completely edentulous patients. Dental records of edentulous patients are often sparse due to in frequent follow up of the patients and lack of record keeping by the dental practitioners. Therefore, the provision of some form of permanent denture labeling or marking can serve as a solution to these problems.
