Fingerprints are known to be unique and unalterable, and hence an excellent tool for population studies, personal identification, morphological and genetic research. Dermatoglyphics, the study of surface markings of the skin, especially feet and hands, has been the subject of interest in medical genetics.

Dermatoglyphics has a significant relationship with oral diseases. Dermatoglyphics has moved from obscurity to acceptability as a diagnostic tool.
