Abstract

The role of Forensic odontologist in genealogical analysis is important identification. This is useful in knowing
whether someone has the same or different family lineage. Genealogical analysis can use Y-STR DNA from teeth
with Amelogenin. This gene is present in hydroxyapatite crystals on the surface of enamel, dentin and tooth roots.
Recent methods obtained from several literatures show that this examination can be performed using a Raman
spectra technique which provides a laser wave stream during PCR analysis. The results of the conclusions from
several literatures obtained good accuracy.
