ABSTRACT
Pink teeth may be seen after trauma, a fight or car accident, and barbiturate poisoning. Pink dentine is visible by external inspection, although a case could be made for any pigmentation present originally in the layers of the tooth root having been leached out over the course of time. In the cases reported in the forensic literature two strong factors seem to contribute to the appearance of the pink colouration. This paper reviews the causes, detection and factors responsible for pink teeth.
