A print pallet composed of a dental tray holding a filler pad of thermoplastic material can be warmed to plasticize such material and inserted into the mouth of a person to be identified to be stamped by the occlusal surfaces of that person\s dental arch to imprint a print of such arch occlusal surfaces on the pad. Such print record can be preserved or recorded by various media for later comparison to establish the identity of the person when deceased or incapacitated.

A composite pallet for recording a print of dental arch tooth occlusal surfaces comprising a pad of thermoplastic material softenable by warming to a temperature of about 145°F. (62.78°C.) to a plasticized nonsticky condition deformable into intimate detailed contact with such tooth occlusal surface

A composite pallet for recording a print of dental arch tooth occlusal surfaces comprising a pad of thermoplastic material softenable by warming to a temperature of about 145°F. (62.78°C.) to a plasticized nonsticky condition deformable into intimate detailed contact with such tooth occlusal surfaces and quickly hardenable by cooling to durable rigid hard strong condition , dimensionally stable for preserving accurately the shape of the print of such tooth occlusal surfaces, and a tray of hard strong material which is not softenable at such softening temperature of said pad, having one side overlaid by said pad and without a pad overlying its opposite side, said pad having a thickness a minor portion of the distance between the occlusal surface and the gum of a tooth in the dental arch and providing an exposed principal face for reception of a print of substantially only the dental arch tooth occlusal surfaces.
