DNA profiling, a forensic technique plays a crucial role in forensic odontology. DNA is unique to each individual, making it a highly reliable source for identification especially when identifying individuals from skeletal remains or damaged tissues. Teeth, due to their resilience and hard tissue structure, serve as an excellent source of DNA, making then valuable in investigations. DNA profiling allows for accurate identification, matching antemortem records with post mortem samples and can even provide information on ancestry and sex determination.
