Abstract

In lethal encounter conditions such as the assaults associated with life and death struggles amid assaulter and victims, the dentition are often used as an armament. Indeed, using the teeth to impose severe damage on an assailant may be the barely feasible defensive method for a victim. Alternately, it is well established that assaulters in sexual abuse, including sexual murder, sexual assault and child abuse, often bite their victims as a remark of power, fury and animalistic attitude. The teeth are an important constituent of our natural depository. Bite marks have evolved into one of the copious different ways in which an assaulter can be found after an assault on another person. The investigation of human bite marks is by far the most confronting and specific part of forensic dentistry.
