Abstract
Cheiloscopy i.e. study of lip prints was initially used as a technique of identification as they are as specific as fingerprints. Although the technique was described in middle of last century it is yet to be used routinely for investigative purposes. Recent studies are showing relation of lip prints with various clinical conditions like inheritance of cleft lip and increased incidence of certain cancers.
Keywords: Identification; Cheiloscopy; Lip Prints; Classification; Recent Trends.
