Conclusion
As we have seen, dental records, along with the entire stomatognathic system, can provide
information for the identification of individuals. This method is useful when identification
by other means is not possible, and in that event forensic dentistry becomes indispensable
in respect of partial data obtained from disaster sites, or when bodies are found in skeletal
condition and the only available information comes from DNA in the bones and from dental
records.
In recent years dental records have been given importance in matters of identification. Different
organisations have started to work with forensic dentists, such as Interpol with its disaster
victims identification unit, which uses dental comparison for identification purposes, and the
NIST, with its interest in including dental records in the ANSI/NIST – ITL standard for the
exchange of biometric data. However, it should be pointed out that the method only works
if there are prior records with which to compare, which obliges us as dentists to keep clear
complete records that comply with international standards and nomenclature.
Given the importance of those records, the National Office of Information Technology is
working with the NIST on the development of the appropriate standard.
