Public awareness of forensic odontology and willingness to enroll in a prospective dental registry: a survey conducted in Saudi Arabia

ConclusionsA future national dental registry in Saudi Arabia is expected to be well-received by the public. An improvement in the public’s knowledge regarding the importance of forensic dentistry is expected to encourage their active enrollment in such a registry. Although women and employed participants were more willing to enroll, it is too early to predict the rates of participation, given the fact that nationwide marketing surveys have yet to be launched.
