Dentistry - Vocabulary and designation system for forensic oro-dental data (ISO 20888:2020)
The purpose of this standard is to develop uniform nomenclature for the description of forensic dental data
and define a standardized set of uniform terms to convey this information. The goal of the standard is not to
define the extent of information collected, only to be certain that common terms are used in order to aid in an
identifying human remains or a living amnesiac.
Zahnheilkunde - Terminologie für forensische orodentale Daten (ISO 20888:2020)
Dieses Dokument legt die Begriffe fest, die zur Beschreibung der besonderen Merkmale des Mundes einer Person durch Zahnärzte und forensischen Dentalexperten verwendet werden. Diese Begriffe werden in Konzepten organisiert, die auf einem forensischen Ansatz für die Merkmale eines Mundes basieren, wobei viele Konzepte für die Identifikationsdomäne spezifisch sind, die an keiner anderen Stelle im ISO Vokabular der Zahnmedizin definiert sind (z. B. „vorhandener Zahn“).
Die hierarchische Struktur dieses Dokumentes ist so ausgelegt, dass die Attribute eines Zahns, des Mundes und einer Prothese/Orthese mit zunehmenden Ebenen an unterscheidbaren Merkmalen (z. B. Materialeigenschaften, Oberfläche des restaurierten Zahns) beschrieben werden und die Möglichkeit, jede beliebige Beschreibungsebene eines Attributs mit dem umfassendsten Konzept zu verbinden.
Dieses Dokument ist für den Datenaustausch zwischen Antemortem- und Postmortem-Aufzeichnungen vorgesehen, und um Unklarheiten über die Begriffe, die zur Beschreibung des Mundes einer Person verwendet werden, zu beseitigen.
Dieses Dokument ist zur Anwendung zusammen mit ISO 1942 und ISO 3950 vorgesehen.

Ces connecteurs sont généralement utilisés comme des connecteurs de la "catégorie 8.1" dans des systèmes de câblage de "classe I" spécifiés dans l'ISO/IEC 11801. Ces connecteurs sont accouplables et interopérables avec d'autres connecteurs de la série IEC 60603-7 comme cela est défini à l'Article 2 de l'IEC 61603-7.
Ces connecteurs présentent une compatibilité amont avec d'autres connecteurs de la série IEC 60603-7, à l'exception des connecteurs des normes IEC 60603-7-7 et IEC 60603-7-71.

Introduction
0.1 Background
The establishment of a positive identification of an unidentified individual by the comparative dental
analysis of a forensic odontologist requires submission of supporting documentation from the dental
professionals who treated the patient. This information includes dental treatment records, radiographs,
photographs, and dental casts; this information is then submitted to the appropriate authority and
referred to as antemortem dental data (AM). Currently, the vast majority of antemortem dental data
and associated attachments are submitted on paper and by radiographic film, however, the goal is
to create a standardized electronic format for the transfer of this data. Due to varying methods of
documentation and recording systems, an organized list of standardized dental terminology would
be useful. Submission of ambiguous information due to a lack of harmonization can increase the time
required to establish the identification through dental means.The disaster victim identification (DVI) community, due to the number of victims and the number of
countries of origin of the victims, will benefit from this internationally standardized forensic oro-
dental data, by using standardized terminology of useful concepts.Current odontological comparison software is based on the concept of restoration comparison. Utilizing
each tooth as a field, comparison and/or elimination queries and advance sorting algorithms creates a
ranking of possible matches to aid the forensic odontologist in the initial records comparison. Biometric,
familial, radiographic, and visual information support the likelihood of a match. By standardizing the
descriptors used to describe this information, the likelihood of identifying an individual based on the
forensic odontologist's data increases.0.2 Principle
Many descriptors of a tooth are determined from radiographic interpretation; specific “similar”
radiographic attributes are grouped together into single unified descriptors. This should allow for
the unambiguous interpretation of a tooth attribute and ensure that a radiographic attribute can
be described by a single unified attribute. Generally, consistency of assigning a unique attribute to a
radiographic feature is utilized in this document in order to create unambiguous descriptors even at
the expense of combining similar, but not identical, attributes.The permanent dentition takes priority when both the primary and permanent teeth are present if both
are concurrently visible in the mouth; however, the presence of the primary tooth should also be noted.
The pertinence of these descriptors should be weighted with the time differences between the date of
the records and the presumptive date of recording of the current data.If a descriptor involves multiple teeth, then that descriptor shall be utilized for all the teeth involved.
0.3 RationaleA significant volume of information is gathered during dental evaluation and treatment. Forensic
odontologists charged with the task of identifying individuals need comprehensive information in
order to prove or disprove identification. While much of the information gathered by the dentist might
not aid in claims adjudication, it is not possible to predict in advance what item or items in the dental
record might be conclusive in identification. This document is designed to fill a void by establishing
documentation requirements for the submission of antemortem dental information for identification.
Terms and definitions describing teeth, pathology or anomaly of teeth or tooth restorations are limited
to ISO 3950 oro-dental codes that map to individual teeth.Terms and definitions describing multiple teeth, jaw or mouth conditions, pathologies, relationships, or
prostheses are limited to ISO 3950 oro-dental codes that map those entities.Terms and definitions which are limited to other specific ISO 3950 oro-dental locations are annotated
accordingly in the notes to entry and related annexes.© ISO 2020 – All rights reserved v

Dentistry — Vocabulary and designation system for
forensic oro-dental data
1 Scope
This document defines the terms used to describe the distinctive characteristics of an individual’s
mouth by dentists and forensic dental experts. These terms are organized by concepts based on a
forensic approach to the characteristics of a mouth, with many concepts specific to the identification
domain that are not defined elsewhere in ISO dentistry vocabularies (e.g. “present tooth”).
The hierarchical structure of this document is designed to describe attributes of a tooth, the mouth
and a prosthesis/orthosis with increasing levels of discriminative characteristics (e.g. material
characteristics, restored tooth surface) and the possibility to connect any level of description of an
attribute with the most comprehensive concept.This document is intended to be used for data exchange between antemortem and postmortem files
and remove ambiguity on the terms used to describe an individual’s mouth.This document is intended to be used in conjunction with ISO 1942 and ISO 3950.
