Abstract

Forensic Dentistry – 2nd edition was organized by David Senn and Paul Stimson (Figure 1). Both authors are experienced and known professionals with academic and practical activities involving forensic dentistry, including their founding and administrative role within the American Society of Forensic Odontology (ASFO).

The publication of a second edition of the book (2010) was mainly justified due to the gradual growth of technology experienced in forensic dentistry since the first published edition (1997) – Figure 2. As expected, the second edition was improved with an updated content more compatible with the contemporary forensic practices.
