Abstract
Odontological identification is an essential, accurate and rapid method with allows a body to be identified from its dental characteristics. This anthropometrical method of identification is included between the descriptive and the biological methods. The authors present their experience in performing a formal identification about the cases in less than 15 days. The identification techniques used are comparative. They compare a dental chart made on a body to the information given by the families and in particular by family doctors and dental surgeons.
Work was conducted by the multidisciplinary identification team
