Abstract

Zubalo čovjeka, osim za fiziološke funkcije žvakanja i govorenja, ponekad posluži i kao oružje za napad ili obranu i tada ostavlja više ili manje karakteristične otiske na koži. Analiza tragova ugriza može biti otežana postojanjem fotografske i dinamičke distorzije što povećava mogućnost pogrešne interpretacije podataka zbog subjektivnosti ispitivača. U radu je opisana studija kojom se uspoređuju identifikacije tragova ugriza nađenih na različitim dijelovima tijela žrtava. Nalazi ukazuju na to da je postupna dinamička usporedba niza susjednih tragova ugriza dijelom zubala s obzirom na kretanje čeljusti i distorziju kože bila korisna pri analizi točaka podudaranja. Proces identifikacije ukazao je na moguću dinamiku ozljeđivanja pri ugrizanju. Primjenom računala i grafičkih programa uspješno se rješavaju problemi distorzije, element subjektivnosti se smanjuje na minimum, a omogućena je i bolja komunikacija među stručnjacima.

Abstract (english)

The human dentition, in addition to the physiological functions of chewing and speech, can sometimes serve as a weapon for attack or defense, and in such cases it leaves more or le ss typical marks on the skin. The analysis of bite marks can be made more difficult because of photographic and dynamic distorsion, which increases the possibility of wrong data interpretation due to the examiner's subjectivity. We have described above a study that compares the identification of bite marks found on various parts of the victims' bodies. The findings suggest that a stepwise dynamic comparison of serial adjacent bite marks by a part of the dentition, in regard of the movement of the jaw and skin distorsion, was useful in the identification of matching points. The identification process suggested a possible wounding dynamic during biting. The use of computers and graphic programs can succesfully solve the problems of distorsion; the subjectivity element becomes minimal, and a better communication between experts is made possible.
