Forensic Odontology - A Science within a Scienceasclepiuspdfs
Forensic odontology, a branch of forensic sciences, uses the skill of the dentist in personal identification during mass calamities, gender assault, and child abuse. Its role in the judiciary is of much importance by providing the required information, which will help the legal authorities to recognize negligence, malpractice, abuse, and identification of unknown individuals. The applications of forensic odontology in crime investigations include the identification of teeth that are used as weapons may provide information regarding the identity of the biter. Forensic odontology employs various methods that play a major role in the identification of individuals who cannot be identified individually or by other means.
Forensic Odontology is defined as that branch of dentistry which, in the interest of justice, deals with the proper handling and examination of dental evidence with proper evaluation and presentation of dental findings.
Forensic dentistry is the complete evaluation and examination of dental evidence to aid in administration of criminal as well as civil justice.
Medicolegal significance of teeth, bite marks, dental development ( from neonates to adults and changes at old age )
Used for identification, racial significance in mass disasters, mutilated bodies, DNA analysis, toxicological analysis in cases of poisoning.
Age estimation in civil cases, solving discrepancy of age for athletes playing sports for national and international academy.
various others importance too.

Clinical study of impacted maxillary canine in the Arab population in IsraelAbu-Hussein Muhamad
The objective of the present study was to determine the prevalence of impacted maxillary canine in patients in Arabs
Community in Israel (ARAB48,Israel) visiting our Center For Dentistry,Research & Aesthetics,Jatt,Almothalath,Israel,
4250 patients . This study comprises data from patients who attended the O.P.D.2200 patients between Jun. 2006 to Dec
2013. Patients were examined in order to detect the impacted maxillary canines by intraoral examination, palpation, dental
records and followed by radiographs. It was found that the prevalence of canine impaction was 0,8 % (N=4250), 1,6
(N=2200), 43,9 (N-82) in males and 1,1% (N=4250), 2,1 (N=2200), 56,1 (N-82) in females suggesting that prevalence of
impacted maxillary canines is more in females than males and it is statistically significant. The overall prevalence for
maxillary impacted canines was found to be 3,7 % (N=2200) which suggested that it is much higher than previous studies.
The results of this study were slightly different than other studies, while the dissimilarities may be attributed to the sample
selection, method of the study and area of patient selection, which suggest racial and genetic differences.
Emerging Frontiers of Forensic Odontology: Implications for Civil and Crimina...Arka95
Forensic odontology stands at the forefront of modern forensic science, offering unique
insights into human identification and criminal investigations. In India, where diverse
populations and complex legal systems intersect, the role of forensic odontology is increasingly
crucial in both civil and criminal sectors. This review of solved cases published in literature
explores the implications of forensic odontology in India's civil and criminal sectors, focusing
on advancements, challenges and prospects. This review adopts a comprehensive approach
integrating literature review on case studies and expert interviews. Information is gathered
through the literature analysis of recent advancements in forensic odontology techniques and
their application in India. The field of forensic odontology is experiencing rapid advancements
in India, with many innovative techniques revolutionizing the field. These advancements have
profound implications for both civil and criminal sectors like dental identification, personal
injury claims, mass disaster victim identification, bite mark analysis, dental profiling, and
identification of human remains. As advancements continue to evolve, forensic odontology is
poised to play an increasingly significant role in human identification, legal proceedings, and
justice administration. This review addresses the challenges such as standardization, training,
and collaboration which are essential for fully harnessing the benefits of forensic odontology
in our country. Future research may be focused on developing comprehensive frameworks and
interdisciplinary approaches to enhance the integration of forensic odontology into civil and
criminal investigations, ultimately contributing to the advancement of forensic science and the
pursuit of justice in India.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

7. Race identification
Mass disaster/individual
identification
Identification of foreign objects
Preparation and presentation of
dental evidence in both civil and
criminal legal procedures.

9. DENTAL IDENTIFICATION PROCEDURESDENTAL IDENTIFICATION PROCEDURES
Comparative Dental Identification
Identification by comparing the dead
individual's teeth with presume; dental
records of the individual.
DENTAL PROFILING
ethnicity or 'race'
gender
age
habits
occupation of the dead individual
www.indiandentalacademy.com
10. Four steps in post-mortem dental identification-
Oral autopsy,
Obtaining dental records,
Comparing post- and ante-mortem dental data, and
Writing a report and drawing conclusions.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
11. Examining soft tissue injuries, fractures,
and presence of foreign bodies
samples of hard and soft tissues may be
obtained for further investigations.
All information pertaining to the body
must be entered onto the standard
'Interpol post-mortem form', which is
color-coded in pink.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
12. Dental RecordsDental Records
Dental records contain information of treatment and
dental status of a person during his/her life.
Obtained from the treating dentist, specialist or hospital
records.
In form of dental charts, radiographs, casts and/or
photographs.
Available dental records should be
transcribed onto the standard 'Interpol ante-mortem
form', which is color-coded in yellow.

14. Age-
Illegal documentation of birth
immigrated illegally
Who committed crime and age is
necessary to decide punishment
Case of adoption, legal matters.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
15. Essential factor for identity
of person and critical
component in
dental profiling.
Dentition begins to develop at about four months after
conception upto 3rd
decade of life.
Based on formation of root and crown structure.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
16. Third molar development as an indicator of chronological age on
radiographs.
After age 14, estimation becomes difficult as most dentition is
complete except 3rd
molar
Stages of tooth mineralization and Demirjian stages of crown and
root formation
(stages were named 'A to 'H'. )
based on radiograph can be
used to estimate approx. age.
{i.e. under 18 years }
