How do facial reconstructions help?
Every unidentified deceased person is someone’s missing loved one
A facial reconstruction can assist investigating agencies by providing an image of the person that can be released to the public along with case information
The goal is to provide an image that closely resembles how the person appeared in life, and to prompt recognition with a family member or friend.
The Process of Facial Reconstruction
The forensic artist is provided case information that may include:
Photos, anthropology reports, odontology (dental) reports
Information about clothing found with the person (especially clothing sizes)
Approximate age, sex, height, hair length and hair color, and possible ancestry
The forensic artist may examine and photograph the remains in order to document unique features that can assist in estimating the person’s appearance.
3D Facial Reconstruction
When a facial reconstruction sculpture is created, it starts with a 3D scan of the skull and mandible (lower jaw)
The digital file created from the scan can then be used to create a digital sculpture or can be printed in plastic using a 3D printer for a clay sculpture.
