    Adding personal identity marks to dental prostheses is crucial for forensic identification. Engraving metal prostheses and using heat-resistant, visible materials in acrylic resin ones are recommended dental procedures.

    Area of Science:

    • Forensic dentistry
    • Biomaterials science
    • Dental prosthetics

    Background:

    • Personal identification is critical in forensic investigations.
    • Dental prostheses are common and can bear unique identifiers.
    • Current methods for marking prostheses vary in durability and visibility.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose a standardized method for marking dental prostheses for identification.
    • To evaluate suitable marking techniques for both metal and acrylic resin prostheses.
    • To emphasize the forensic significance of prosthesis marking.

    Main Methods:

    • Investigated engraving as a marking method for metal prostheses.
    • Assessed the heat resistance and visibility of labeling materials for acrylic resin prostheses.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Reviewed the forensic implications of incorporating personal identity marks.

    • Main Results:

    • Engraving is the preferred method for marking metal prostheses.
    • Acrylic resin prostheses require marked, heat-resistant materials with surface-visible marks.
    • The study highlights the importance of these marks in forensic investigations.

    Conclusions:

    • Personal identity marks on dental prostheses are vital for forensic identification.
    • Implementing these marking techniques should be a compulsory dental procedure.
    • Specific methods (engraving for metal, heat-resistant materials for acrylic) ensure effective identification.
