Statistical Evidence for the Individuality of the Human Dentition

CODEN: JFSCAS

Abstract

A general population sample of bite marks in wax is used to demonstrate mathematically the individuality of the human dentition. The general principles of probability are discussed and applied to the analysis of teeth using a precise method of measurement. The unique nature of the human dentition is confirmed.
