6. Forensic Odontology

The truth is that I am not very sure that I would like to study for a postgraduate degree, but I am clear that I want to specialize.
 The options are very wide and it makes me want to study everything but, for now, a postgraduate degree in dental and forensic dentistry calls my attention.
 It is very interesting for me to learn about how teeth last after death and how the decomposition process of these occurs, since it is known that teeth and jaws are very well preserved postmortem.  This is very helpful for forensic expertise, since studies can be done to help, for example, to recognize corpses.
 If I could study this specialty, the truth would not matter to me if it were in Chile or abroad and the modality could be part-time or mixed.
 The history of this specialty is very old, it is said that the first person identified by her teeth was Lolia Paulina;  a Roman noblewoman, in A.D. 49.
However, it was not until 1964 that the first specialized course in forensic dentistry was given and taught in Washington, D.C, at the Pathological Institute of the Armed Forces.
I find it too interesting to make sense of something that has already lost the meaning of life and that tells the story about someone who could no longer continue with his story.
