Abstract

 Periodontics can be considered as a clinical dental specialty with significant potential for applications in forensic odontology. This specialty can be utilized for identification of individuals through morphology and pathology of periodontium and also for age estimation studies based on root transparency and root length. The aim of this review is to briefly discuss a periodontal perspective in aiding forensic investigations.
