Marking dental prosthesis has always been considered an important part of forensic dentistry. Denture identification systems are important not only for patients in health-care facilities, old-age homes, and hospitals but also in medico-legal cases. In India, no standardized method is being followed for labeling of the dentures. This article proposes a technique of denture marking that gives permanent, unique, and global identification to all the Indian nationals using Aadhaar - a universally accepted identity for Indian nationals. The information on the card can be printed on a piece of paper or a plastic card and the Aadhaar card quick read code/number can be easily and cost-effectively used for marking all the newly constructed or existing prosthetic devices.

“…It is not always possible for patients to store implant or dental company information. However, access to this information would be beneficial to dentists (Mohan et al 2012). It is possible to acquire this information by labelling implant abutments or crowns.…”

Background: This study is to compare the two different techniques used in the labeling of implant-based fixed prostheses, using the square code and using microchip labeling techniques, taking into account the properties of an ideal prosthetic labeling technique. Sixty implants fixed prostheses were produced, 30 for each group. Square codes were created on the lingual bands of implants fixed prostheses which are the samples of the group that were labelled by using square code, and microchips were placed in the implant abutments of the samples in the group that were labelled with the microchip. Results: The thermal cycle test was used to compare the long-life cycle of the samples, and no deformation was found. A survey attended by 51 dentists was created to evaluate the techniques' effects on their aesthetic appeal and their application. The data found was statistically evaluated, and the result was statistically insignificant (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Microchips' data storage capacity was found more successful; however, according to their resistance to heat and their costs, the square code, was more advantageous.

“…In recent years, techniques using newer technologies with a higher level of security have been introduced such as microdots, Radio Frequency Transponder (RFID) chips 14 , 16 , and memory card 11 . Unfortunately, the cost associated with these technologies, both in the item to be embedded and the specialized reader/scanner necessary to extract the information, prohibits them from being broadly accepted by dental professionals.…”

Objective The aim of this study was to show DPid as an important tool of potential application to solve cases with dental prosthesis, such as the forensic case reported, in which a skull, denture and dental records were received for analysis.Material and Methods Human identification is still challenging in various circumstances and Dental Prosthetics Identification (DPid) stores the patient’s name and prosthesis information and provides access through an embedded code in dental prosthesis or an identification card. All of this information is digitally stored on servers accessible only by dentists, laboratory technicians and patients with their own level of secure access. DPid provides a complete single-source list of all dental prosthesis features (materials and components) under complete and secure documentation used for clinical follow-up and for human identification.Results and Conclusion If DPid tool was present in this forensic case, it could have been solved without requirement of DNA exam, which confirmed the dental comparison of antemortem and postmortem records, and concluded the case as a positive identification.
