The article represents results of an epidemiological research “Analysis of presence and retrospective review of credibility of medical cards in dental patients” that was held in Uzhhorod with involving 2000 respondents. Based on the system processing of survey results and the parallel retrospective evaluation of the correct completion of medical records were made conclusions about the possibility of identification of persons using the principles of DVI program (Disaster Victim Identification) provided by Interol/ICPO using specific ciphers and codes to designate individual teeth abnormalities and the results of dental treatment. Taking into account the statistically processed data it was justified the use of scanning methods of dental identification with computer analysis of panoramic X-ray photos of patients as the only reliable source of information on dental status changes during a comprehensive dental treatment.
