In the article titled “Malocclusion: An adjunctive aid in individual identification”, published on pages 138-142, Issue 1, Volume 24 of Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology[1], the statement on page number 141, line number 12 has an incorrect reference cited:
“Due to the different lip print patterns observed in different regions of the world, lip prints have considered to have regional differences in their appearance.[12]”
The statement with correct reference citation should read as:
Due to the different lip print patterns observed in different regions of the world, lip prints have considered to have regional differences in their appearance.[24]
The new reference being added to the article and included in the reference list of the article as “24” has been stated below:
