In cases where a body is found, how do they identify them only with dental records? E.g. all my dental work is done in my home country and I live in a different country. How will this different country know who I am by my fillings etc?

It is a movie/tv plot device for the most part, that isn’t realistic for the most part but may have some vasis in reality. There is no warehouse filled with dental records the police can go to.
If remains are found and the Police have some clue who it is and that person went to a dentist recently and the Police can find that dentist and the dentist has some saved X-rays, then they can see if there is a match.
However if remains are found and the Police have no who the person is dental records won’t help.
