  • Title: Forensic odontology in missing persons cases.
    Author: Krauss TC.
    Journal: J Forensic Sci; 1976 Oct; 21(4):959-62. PubMed ID: 972323.
    Abstract:
    Forensic odontology can provide a service early in cases of missing persons where foul play is suspected. The combined effort of the professional police investigator and the odontologist prior to the discovery of an unidentified remains allows for an efficient, accurate identification procedure. The forensic dental interview can provide a working format or starting point in developing a planned interrogation procedure concerning dental information. In such a manner, the planned interview can enhance the investigator's efforts in missing persons cases and other cases requiring dental identification.
