Human identification can be made by comparing postmortem data with patient's ante mortem dental records (including dental casts, cinematographic records and X-rays).4 In the absence of ante mortem data, post mortem dental profiling is being carried out through forensic anthropology to determine an individual's age, ancestry background, gender and socioeconomic status.5 It may also reflect over a person's profession, dietary routine or any dental/ systemic disease.6 The changes observed in mandible and teeth over the time and the variations in the ratio of D and L aspartic acid in dentine, help determine the relative age of an individual.
