Abstract

Like In large-scale disasters like bombings, terrorism, hurricanes, earthquakes, air crashes, Victim identification include physical  identification of documents, their jewellery, and belongings. But this identification cannot be helpful in many cases in such scenarios data  related to dental, hairs, and fingerprint. In recent times DNA application in forensic dentistry have been increased. Forensic  odontogenetics have expanded its reach in forensic investigation. Generally large amount of DNA is present in teeth. Since teeth can  withstand extreme climate changes and high temperature which makes it to be as available evidence in mass disaster conditions. In this  review methods to collect DNA from saliva, teeth, mucosal surfaces and others. Also, about the techniques of DNA extraction for  identification were discussed. This is a Narrative type of review. Pubmed and Scopus indexed journal were reviewed and keywords used  for searching are DNAextraction, DNAisolation, Forensic genetics, Forensic dentistry.
