Abstract
Forensic Odontology, the branch of dentistry that is centered on dental or oro-facial findings has become an essential component of forensic science over the years. The identification of dental remains is of prime significance when the deceased individual is skeletonized, decomposed, burned, or eviscerated. Pulp plays an important role in forensic odontology as pulpal tissue can be used to determine age, sex and blood group antigen by molecular analysis. The present article discusses the uniqueness of pulp and how it can be used as an aid for determination of certain traits when no other remains are available.
