The orthodontist play a major role in identification of victims or suspects by maintaining proper diagnostic records. The tragic incidences of past and present have given an insight into the increased importance of forensic dentistry in identification of the deceased or victims of disaster in general. Also, with the expected future increase in disasters due to terrorism and natural disasters such as earthquakes and other causes, the orthodontists with the help of the available software's can use superimposition techniques on lateral cephalograms to rebuild the victims face to a great extent. It is the duty of all orthodontists to store dental documents as they may help in such unexpected/critical circumstances.
