Forensic web watch.
A search for forensic odontology sites on the Internet revealed thousands of 'hits', of which many constituted dentists offering a private service on their homepages. Several organisations and associations were identified following extensive sifting through these addresses and, despite its growing acceptance in the forensic community, the resources available were superficial and of only moderate educational content. Although many of the sites provided non-specialist information and points of contact for local experts only one was commended for its design and depth. The need for improvement in this field is therefore recommended.
