Article Synopsis
- Refusal of autopsy can happen for reasons like religious beliefs and concerns about diseases, prompting interest in alternative methods like virtual forensic odontological autopsy.
- The study systematically reviewed literature from December 2021 to October 2022 to assess the use of oral and maxillofacial radiology as a non-invasive technique for virtual autopsy.
- Four main imaging techniques were identified for virtual autopsy in forensic odontology, including CT scanning (multidetector CT), cone beam CT, and magnetic resonance imaging, each with unique benefits.

The primary step in forensic odontological analysis is sex determination. The present study is one of the few studies that evaluated the accuracy of the combination of canine tooth root length and crown measurements for sex determination. The study sample comprised 196 cone-be am computed tomographic scans of individuals aged 20-80 years distributed in five age categories: 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, and 60+ years old.
