Abstract

In order to handle forensic dental evidence and provide a report to a court of law, forensic odontology is a subdiscipline of dental science that employs a multidisciplinary approach. Dental science and forensic odontology are progressively gaining in prominence and applicability in the judicial system. In forensic casework of human identity, age estimation, and sexual assault cases with patterned injuries, there is a requirement for a specialist forensic kit by legal and forensic authorities.
The forensic kit contents should be in accordance of the crime scene whether indoor or outdoor. To handle the evidence, a set of armamentarium/equipment related to forensic odontology are needed for a specific purpose based on the place of application. This article is an attempt to provide a comprehensive review of the essential equipment needed in a Forensic Dental Kit at the crime scene for investigation by a forensic odontologist, which will aid in the collection of evidence, the transfer and maintenance of records, and the identification of the perpetrator.
