Abstract(s)
A identificação de vĆtimas mortais Ć© uma necessidade das sociedades, por razƵes
jurĆdicas, sociais e humanitĆ”rias. A Antropologia Forense Ć© uma das subdisciplinas da
Antropologia FĆsica que se dedica Ć identificação humana, nomeadamente em
investigações arqueológicas, criminais e de desastres de massa. A Antropologia Forense
é particularmente útil na investigação da identidade humana a partir do exame de
cadƔveres ou de restos mortais carbonizados, despedaƧados, em adiantado estado de
decomposição, ou esqueletizados. A realização das peritagens necessĆ”rias Ć
identificação destes restos mortais terÔ que ser efetuada por um conjunto de
profissionais, dos quais se destacam os antropólogos forenses. Para esse efeito, estes
executam a diagnose da espƩcie, da afinidade populacional, do gƩnero, da idade no
momento do falecimento e da estatura, através da aplicação de diversas metodologias,
que têm por base dados morfológicos e morfométricos do esqueleto e dos dentes. Tendo
em conta que os dentes e as arcadas dentÔrias são elementos do corpo humano que
proporcionam diversas caracterĆsticas individualizantes, surge a Medicina DentĆ”ria
Forense como uma Ôrea privilegiada para a identificação humana, cabendo ao médico
dentista essa nova responsabilidade.
The identification of victims is a necessity, for legal reasons, humanitarian and social. Forensic Anthropology is one of the subdisciplines of Physical Anthropology and is dedicated to the human identification, particularly in archaeological investigations, criminal and mass disaster. Forensic Anthropology is particularly useful in the investigation of human identity from the examination of dead bodies or remains charred, broken in advance state of decomposition, or in the form of skeletons. The expertise necessary for the identification of these remains will have to be carried out by a group of professionals, including forensic anthropologists. To this end, these perform the diagnosis of species, population affinity, gender, age at time of death and the stature, by applying various methodologies, based on morphological and morphometric data of the skeleton and teeth. Taking into account that the teeth and dental arches are elements of the human body that provide various distinctive characteristics, arises Forensic Dentistry as a prime area for human identification, fitting to the dentist this new responsibility.
