I'm in the process of reading a good book about forensic science used for solving crimes. In the section on odontology, it mentioned that US dentists, sometime in the mid 80s (86?), started putting a tiny plate on every individual's teeth. All it really said was that the plate contained 12 characters containing useful information about the individual. Does anyone have any more information about this? I was pretty shocked when I read this tidbit. Is it in my teeth, too? What are the chances?
PS. I'll try to remember to bring the book in - in case anyone wants to reference it. Thanks.
