One of the greatest fears a parent has today is that their child could go missing. Evidence of this is the fact that over 30 states have implemented AMBER Alert systems that issue statewide public alerts about missing children.

The Elmwood Dental Center on Clearview Parkway can provide your children with a TOOTHPRINTS" I.D.s to help safeguard them in the event they are ever lost or, worse, abducted.

Since most children haven't had their fingerprints taken, and often have few dental records, TOOTHPRINTS, which is a dental impression taken of your child's "bite," provides positive identification to help authorities track a missing child.

The TOOTHPRINTS dental-impression process takes roughly five minutes or so. First, your child bites into a warm thermoplastic "wafer" for roughly half a minute. Then the wafer is removed and allowed to cool and harden for two or three minutes. Once the impression is finished, you can take it home for safekeeping.
