Cheiloscopy is a forensic investigation technique that deals with identification of humans based on lips traces. This is unique for individuals like the finger prints. Lip prints are hereditary yet considered to be individualistic, each possessing their own unique characteristics. For this reason it is safe to suggest that lip prints can be included in the forensic sciences arena as a legitimate means of identifying persons of interest connected with criminal activity. Lip prints thus hold potential promise as an instrumental tool in forensic odontology. The purpose of this article is to give an insight into this branch of forensic odontology with an emphasis on its historical background, techniques of recording it and its future perspectives.Keywords

Green dentistry is a high-tech approach that reduces the environmental impact of dental practices and encompasses a service model for dentistry that supports and maintains wellness. It is an approach of dentistry that encourages sustainable practices by reducing resource consumption and waste. Eco-friendly dentistry also tries to increase the health of patients by reducing chemical use in the clinics and using low volatile products. Eco-friendly dentist offices take into consideration patient volume, consumption of dental resources, electricity, energy, chemical and water usage and waste and try to implement environmentally friendly alternatives. By conserving water, using digital imaging and recycling the many recyclable items that pass through the office of a green dentist, a great impact is made. This article provides a series of 'green' recommendations that dentists around the world can implement as going green is need of the hour.Keywords
