Case report on the identification of a murder victim by forensic dental techniques
Leif Kullman, DDS, PhD
College of Dentistry, King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
With the increasing use of dental findings in the identification of unknown dead persons, forensic odontology is rapidly becoming recognized as a sub-speciality of dentistry. A case of dental identification is reported in which the identity of a male murder victim was established in cooperation with colleagues in forensic medicine and the police. Having established the identity of the victim, the search for the perpetrator of the crime could follow.
