Facial reconstruction for forensic purposes is often the only option left in cases of unidentified skeletal remains. Despite its importance in this role, facial reconstruction has limitations that prevent it from being used as a solitary means of body identification. Since it was first discovered as a method of recreating the faces of the deceased, facial reconstruction has had mixed successes. Recognized for its important contribution, it is at the same time inadmissible in court (in most cases) due to the Daubert standard. Flaws with current reconstruction methods complicate its use in court cases, as well as in the field. Both two-dimensional and three-dimensional facial approximation depends on soft tissue depth data that is often not available or is based on limited research studies. Features such as the tip of the nose, ears, and lips are also difficult to recreate, making reconstructions sometimes based primarily on artists' instincts (Pain, 2003). Computer aided reconstruction can create multiple reconstructions from one skull. While this might create a more adequate likeness of a victim, it also runs the risk of flooding the system of missing persons and making it more difficult for families to find and identify a missing loved one. Because it seems unlikely that facial reconstruction will be admissible in court in the near future, facial reconstruction researchers should be focused on creating higher rates of body identification. For this to happen, significant data must be compiled in the area of facial soft tissue depth. Additionally, forensic artists must gain a vast knowledge of medical anomalies and abnormalities, as well as extensive knowledge of the available computer and hand production methods of facial reconstruction.
