Your Child’s Safety Is Important To Us!

One of our greatest fears as a parent is that one of our children could get lost, go missing or be abducted.
Because Boudreau Dental Studio feels strongly about protecting our children, we will offer a free
Toothprints® ID System with every cleaning & exam during the Summer months for children in the age ranges of 3-4, 8-9 and 11-12 years.

It is a simple technique using an arch-shaped thermaplastic wafer that we soften in hot water, then place on the patient’s lower arch. The child bites into the wafer for 50 seconds. This records tooth characteristics, tooth position and upper & lower jaw relationship. It also captures saliva which can be used for DNA testing or a source of human scent effective for dog tracking.

Your child’s “tooth print” will be sealed in a plastic bag and sent home with the parents for safe keeping. In March 2008, a German shepherd picked up the scent of a missing 7 year old boy from the saliva from his tooth print impression. The boy was found standing behind a building.

Summer is a great time to get children in for their cleaning and exam appointments. Call to schedule an appointment and take advantage of this free offer on the Toothprints® ID System.
