A scale of spatial reference for bite mark photography has been developed and evaluated. The scale incorporates both linear and circular graduations to meet the diverse needs of practicing forensic odontologists in the rectification and measurement of photographically recorded bite marks. Its unique L-shaped configuration ensures accurate scaling in both the vertical and horizontal directions and facilitates the gridding of photographs to correct for distortional errors created by oblique camera angles. This paper describes the design and constructional features of the scale and offers guidelines for its effective application to bite mark photography.
Reflective ultraviolet photography has many forensic science applications particularly in child abuse, rape, homicide, and bite mark cases. The potential of this relatively simple and inexpensive procedure has not been fully explored. The procedure for its use in bite mark cases is presented.
Forensic odontology can provide a service early in cases of missing persons where foul play is suspected. The combined effort of the professional police investigator and the odontologist prior to the discovery of an unidentified remains allows for an efficient, accurate identification procedure. The forensic dental interview can provide a working format or starting point in developing a planned interrogation procedure concerning dental information. In such a manner, the planned interview can enhance the investigator's efforts in missing persons cases and other cases requiring dental identification.
