Bite marks are a vital and highly disputed form of forensic evidence. Bite marks can occur in cases of sexual or physical assault , robbery, or self-defense. The usual ways of collecting and comparing these bite marks to the assailant include 3D imaging, X ray techniques etc. However, in many places, especially in rural India, access to such specialised technology and the equipments required is highly limited and mostly unavailable. In such cases, the authors suggest the use of cheaper, more widely available resources to build dental record sample database against which the bite mark on the victim can be compared.
