ABSTRACT
Integrating the philosophy of multidisciplinary teamwork during bitemark investigation will increase success in the recognition, collection, chain of possession, storing, analysis, and effective court presentation of bitemark evidence. Investigators are increasingly challenged to deliver scientific evidence of the highest evidentiary value in bitemark investigations. Jury members and the public have developed high expectations concerning scientific forensic evidence as a result of being exposed to forensic science in the popular media [1].
