I have heard that DNA can be gotten from teeth...maybe this is why there are missing teeth.

BOY. Did you ever RING A BELL!

How simple it would be to keep a TOOTH in the ole pocket,and then take it out when you need it and rub it on an area.

That spot on DW's jacket was probably just another on of the spots he left of his own blood. Someone rubbed a tooth on it real quickly and BINGO!~ Danielle's DNA. No one would even know!

I've seen this on the Discovery Channel(?), but in
order to get the DNA extracted from a tooth, the tooth
has to be destroyed/ground down into a powder. Just
rubbing it onto something won't work.

It would show a major and minor contributor tho, wouldn't it?...like the beanbag DNA.

I believe that the DNA has to be gotten from the inside, root part of the tooth...at least a tooth that has been dry. But everyone knows that when a tooth comes out..(our daughter will be 7 & has had a few fall out lately)...it can be rather bloody.

Just a thought anyhow.

Hi: U-see -Your calling to me-

Hubby and I just got back from eating some wonderful Wonton soup chocked full of veggies in a brown broth. It was light and filling all at the same time. Wonderful..

I'm still pondering teeth... and how come the lower jaw ones were all still there inspite of putrification etc. Will get back after I digest....
