Day 7 – Forensic Odontology: When Teeth Talk

Forensic Odontology Bite Mark Analysis

Forensic Odontology is the field where dentistry meets criminal investigation. From bite marks to dental remains, teeth can provide critical clues in solving crimes. Unlike fingerprints, teeth don’t change over time—making them a reliable source for identification.

Did you know? Bite marks can be used to match a suspect, and even determine the age or identity of a deceased victim.

Here’s how forensic odontologists help in solving crimes:

  • ЁЯУМ Bite Mark Analysis: Identifying suspects based on unique dental patterns.
  • ЁЯж╖ Dental Records Matching: Comparing postmortem and antemortem records to confirm identity.
  • ЁЯзм Age Estimation: Especially useful in child victim cases.
  • ЁЯФе Mass Disasters: Identifying bodies through dental structures even in extreme conditions like fires or floods.

Today, forensic odontology is used in:

  • ✅ Homicide investigations
  • ✅ Sexual assault cases
  • ✅ Disaster victim identification (DVI)
  • ✅ Missing persons cases

Forensic dentistry proves that even in silence, our teeth can speak the truth.

Did You Know? Blood Types Help Solve Crimes

ЁЯй╕ Did You Know? Blood Can Reveal the Suspect! In forensic science, even a small drop of blood can be a powerful clue. One of the first things tested at a crime scene is the blood type — A, B, AB, or O. ⸻ ЁЯФм What Are Blood Types? There are 4 main blood groups: • A • B • AB (universal recipient) • O (universal donor) Each type also has a Rh factor: positive (+) or negative (−), so we get 8 types total. ⸻ ЁЯХ╡️‍♀️ How Forensics Uses Blood Blood type helps: • Narrow down suspects • Eliminate innocent people • Match suspects to the scene Example: If the crime scene blood is AB-, and only 1 suspect has that rare type—it becomes a key clue. ЁЯзм What About DNA? Blood typing is fast and helpful early in the case. Later, DNA analysis gives a 99.99% match to confirm identity. ЁЯУМ Final Note Blood isn’t just red fluid—it’s evidence. It tells stories, reveals secrets, and helps bring justice. ЁЯХ╡️‍♂️ЁЯФм Follow @code_ofcrime on Instagram for more daily forensic facts! #ForensicScience ...

Forensic Entomology: Bugs That Solve Crimes ЁЯРЫ Did you know? Insects like flies, beetles, and maggots are more than just pests—they are silent witnesses in solving crimes! Forensic entomology is the scientific study of insects to determine the time of death, location, and even help identify suspects. ЁЯФН How it works: Insects lay eggs on decomposing bodies. The type and life stage of insects present can reveal how long a body has been there. Different insects appear at different times in decomposition—helping experts build a timeline. ЁЯМН Real-World Use: Forensic entomologists often visit crime scenes to collect insect samples, which are later analyzed under the microscope to match environmental and biological patterns. In many cases, they’ve helped prove or disprove alibis!
