Forensic Odontologists deals with the proper examination, handling and presentation of dental evidence in a court of law. They are to help in identification of bite marks on the victims of attack or in other substances such as wood, leather and food stuffs and to compare bite marks with the teeth of a suspect and presentation of this evidence in court as an expert witness. They are to identify unknown bodies through dental records and to estimate age from teeth; however forensic Odontologist can still contribute to the identity investigation in the absence of dental records through profiling the deceased using features related to teeth. Teeth with their physiologic variations, pathos and effect of therapy record information that remains throughout life and beyond. This article explores an insight to forensic odontology and outlines some of its medico-legal applications in criminal investigations.Keywords

Introduction: Legal and ethical issues of research and publication form an important component of scientific writings, mainly related to the research participant, researcher and publication. Methods: Collecting anecdotes published in different newspapers and journal, this article seeks to briefly review the various international and national guidelines and regulations that exist on issues related to biomedical research and publication. Discussion: The issues of dignity, bodily integrity, autonomy and privacy, providing incentives of research participants and various forms of research misconduct and unethical practice in part of research activities are the burring issues discussed in present day scenario. Relevant international and national declaration and treaties form the literature that are relevant to the ethical and legal aspects of conducting research and publication that researchers should abide by when conducting biomedical research. Researchers should note the major international guidelines as well as the national regulations and legislation. Conclusion: Hence all proposals on biomedical research involving human participants should be cleared by an appropriately constituted local Institutional Ethics Committee (IEC).Keywords
