RADIOGRAPHIC DESCRIPTION OF TITANIUM AND FIBERGLASS POSTS CEMENTED IN HUMAN PREMOLARS SUBJECTED TO HIGH TEMPERATURES IN VITRO FOR FORENSIC PURPOSES

Introduction: during the process of forensic identification of corpses and burnt, carbonized, or incinerated human remains, the analysis of materials used in dental treatments is a reliable marker for accurate identification. The objective of this study was to describe the radiographic changes of titanium and fiberglass posts cemented in human premolars subjected to high temperatures for forensic purposes. Methods: this was a pseudo-experimental in vitro study to observe the radiographic changes of dental tissues (enamel, dentin, and cement) and the following endodontic materials: gutta-percha (Wave One
