Founded in 1970, the American Society of Forensic Odontology (ASFO) promotes interest and research in the field of forensic odontology (forensic dentistry). Prior to the formation of the ASFO, involvement in forensic odontology was limited to those dentists who were affiliated with the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology (AFIP) or other law enforcement and scientific organizations such as the American Academy of Forensic Sciences. Credited as one of the founders of the ASFO, Colonel Robert Boyers of the AFIP recognized the need to provide an inclusive opportunity for education and advancement in the field for all interested individuals.〔Dorion, Robert BJ, Bitemark Evidence, Marcel Dekker New York, NY ISBN 0-8247-5414-X, 2005 p.9〕〔Manual of Forensic Odontology, 4th ed, Albany New York: Impress Printing and Graphics, 2007〕 As membership in the ASFO began to grow in the 1970s, the decision was made to meet annually in conjunction with the American Academy of Forensic Sciences. Sponsorship of the scientific session at the annual meeting provided the opportunity for newer, less experienced members to meet and interact with more experienced peers. Additionally, the joint meeting provided individuals from a variety of forensic disciplines a chance to become familiar with forensic odontology and the ASFO organization. Membership has continued to grow and now includes over 480 active members making it one of the largest worldwide organizations dedicated to this forensic discipline. Membership in the ASFO remains open to any individual interested in developing their knowledge of forensic odontology.〔(ASFO web site )〕 〔Silver, William A; Souviron, Richard R., Dental Autopsy, Taylor and Francis Group, 2009 p.228〕 ==Publications== In 1980, Drs. Robert Siegel and Norman Sperber compiled the ''ASFO Forensic Odontology Workbook''. Over the years, many Society members contributed to this effort which led to the publishing of the "Manual of Forensic Odontology".〔 Currently in the fourth edition, this manual provides a general reference for forensic dentists and others studying the science. This reference manual covers a wide variety of subjects encompassed in forensic odontology some of which include: human identification, bite mark analysis, abuse and neglect as well as current technology and advancements in the field.
