Abstract
It is a well known fact that the sex can be determined from the pulp tissue in living as well as dead, but up to what postmortem interval it can be determined accurately is still a matter of controversy amongst different authors. An attempt has been made in this regard, keeping in view the effect of environment i.e. Role of temperature and humidity on pulp tissue after the extraction of teeth.
