Guidelines for reproducing geometrical aspects of intra-oral radiographs images on cone-beam computed tomography

Human identification requires procedures to individualize a person, which is an important task for legal, social, and personal matters [1]. In this context, dentistry can contribute with reliable and specialized techniques. Comparison of dental records aims to collate the particular anatomical and dental details from antemortem information, which is frequently presented by relatives, to postmortem records and images produced during the forensic examination [2]. This method is well accepted in court and has extensive scientific data available to support its usage [3,4].
