How do police use dental records to identify dead people?

584 views

If they don’t know who you are they can’t go to YOUR dentist, right? Is there a National database that stores all of our our bitewings – I don’t remember consenting to that! And teeth look a lot alike on those X-rays – do you need special training to tell one set apart from another?

I know with military personnel they take a pantograph x-ray of every soldier specifically for remains identification. These days in sure they’ve added DNA to the database as well.
