Abstract
Identity is an invaluable entity for every individual. Forensic odontology is a burgeoning branch of forensic medicine which deals with the proper examination, handling, and presentation of dental evidence in a court of law and thus the establishment of individualism has been the prime importance of this relatively petite specialty of dentistry. Despite the development of recent advances in DNA technology, stomatognathic system still offers a rapid and cost-effective approach of identification of human remains. Hence useful information can still be gleaned from the study of palatoscopy, one of the dominant aspect of dental domain due to its distinctiveness of maintaining shape throughout life. This article reviews the significance of palatal rugae in the field of forensic odontology.
