One of the greatest fears of parents today is that their child will get lost, or worse, be abducted. As dental professionals, we can now offer "Toothprints"…a means of providing parents with a proven means of identifying their child with a bite impression and DNA and saliva samples. These can be critical as the fight against tooth decay has left many children with no cavities and thus, no fillings for identification purposes.

"Toothprints" is a wafer that is softened in warm water. The child bites into the wafer, creating a bite registration that documents the patient's unique tooth characteristics, tooth position and jaw relationship- all important identifiers. The wafer is then sealed in a "zipper type" plastic bag, keeping sufficient proteins from saliva available for DNA testing and enough scent for a trained dog to identify and track with it, should that be necessary.

It is recommended that updates be taken on the following schedule:

	Initial Impression:	Age 3 (or after all primary teeth have erupted)
	Update #1:	Age 7 or 8 (or after the upper and lower incisors and the first permanent molar have erupted)
	Update #2:	Age 12 or 13 (or after all permanent excluding third molars have erupted)

Our office will provide patients with this service for the nominal fee of $5.00. It's easy, comfortable and will give parents peace of mind. Hopefully, they'll never have to use it!

The system will access your home phone number and deliver an informative message pertaining to your next appointment. After you hear your appointment reminder message, you will be asked to confirm your appointment by pressing '1' or replaying the message by pressing '2'. You will also be able to leave a message for our staff.

You will be called one or two days prior to your next appointment. To ensure that you receive your appointment reminder, we will schedule your call to be made in the early evening. If you are not available, you will receive a message on your answering machine.

With the busy schedules of our patients and their parents, it can sometimes be very difficult to speak to a parent prior to an appointment. We have decided to implement this new system because we feel it is important to provide a higher level of service and a more efficient means of communication. As always, you can contact our office at (908)757-3191 to speak to our staff or Dr. Sklar during our regular office hours.

We are looking forward to your feedback on our new system. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at your convenience.
