The scope of forensic dentistry in India is gaining momentum and people are a little more aware in recent years but due to the lack of limited resources and opportunities, the scope is less. The courses are not that advanced yet. Also the fact that the legal system hasn’t recognized the potential of forensic dentistry.
The legal system abroad has better resources and funds to maximise the potential forensic dentistry has to offer by managing national databases as well as using it in different investigations. So the scope is definitely better compared to India
