Dental records used in identification procedures are most often obtained from the offices of general practitioners. The family dentist is required to provide accurate and well documented data to assist in the identification process. The forensic team participating in a mass disaster identification may also utilize the services of general practitioners. They play an active role in the oral autopsy, the oral radiographic procedure, and the identification process itself.
