I call this one "Bitey"

Bite marks have a mixed reputation in the legal field. Some forensic experts use them to tie suspects to crime scenes, but others -- and I'm talking defense attorneys here especially -- say they're not accurate enough to be used as evidence. The Innocence Project says seven people have been freed after being wrongly convicted over bite marks.

At Iowa State, they're building a computer database to show how rarely or frequently certain bite characteristics appear in the population. That way, some suspects can be ruled out.
