Abstract
Five case reports illustrating some of the problems dealt with by the forensic odontologist are presented. The importance of obtaining a correct and detailed dental record as well as dental radiographs of a missing person is stressed. In special cases a dental age evaluation may furnish the only lead, while in others considerations of a dental anthropological nature combined with modern techniques may render valuable information. Finally, the type, structure and composition of dental restorations could indicate the geographic origin of an unknown corpse.
