title: [The dentist as an auxiliary to the law].
abstract: Odontology has played an important role in identifying corpses of unknown persons, and different techniques have been tried to take best advantage of his practice toward that end, since one of the problems facing both the physician and the odontologist in the forensic area is the frequent lack of previous records, dental or from any other nature, which may allow for identification of the unknown.
