Every member of the dental team practices forensic dentistry on a
daily basis. Forensic dentistry is of major importance in body
identification in criminal investigations and in identifying badly
damaged victims of mass disasters; it also includes identifying and
analyzing bite marks; personal injury analysis; and dental
malpractice analysis. In each of these areas, forensic dentistry
provides the Court with necessary evidence to make sound legal
decisions. This book provides readers with a practical guide to the
everyday practice of forensic dentistry by covering body
identification by dental means and bite mark evidence collection
and analysis. Civil litigation also is covered in sections on
personal injury and dental malpractice analysis with basic and
complex cases presented. "Action chapters" are provided with check
lists of what needs to be available for morgue and field work as
well as for court appearances. Part II, Forensic Dentistry in
Action, has numerous case notes and photographs of actual forensic
investigations. These examples confirm the vital role the forensic
dentist and dental auxiliaries can play in civil and criminal
investigations.
