   Abstract:	This paper presents a case of dental identification of a carbonized body in a traffic accident with a private vehicle. After the police inspection performed on the spot of the accident, the carbonized bodies were transported to the Department of Forensic Medicine and Criminology at the School of Medicine in Zagreb for indentification and determination of the cause of death. Dental identification was enabled by tracing the dental chart of the Croatian subject who had been a patient of the Dental Polyclinic in Zagreb. The dental chart of the foreign person was not available, which excluded the possibility of teeth comparison method. However identity was confirmed by DNA analysis from the pulp of the dental tissue.

   Abstract:	In this paper, the importance of the tooth in identification an unknown person has been demonstrated.The theoretical part shows the difference between genomic and mitochondrial DNA. That difference is the durability and properties which they carry and the value they have in identification. Microanatomy has also been described, possible locations of cells inthe tooth and methods to collect material for DNA extraction.The practical part shows the methods used in particular cases for DNA isolation. Horizontal section through the cervical root is used to collect material for DNA isolation. Genomic DNA , from the material, is extracted by organic phenol-chloroform methods. The results are shown on 1 % agarose gel and photographed by a Polaroid camera.
