#13 - FORENSIC DENTISTRY with Dr. Jeremy Graham

Most dentists are familiar with the vast variety of disciplines and specialities that exist within our profession. However, one less known speciality is that of Forensic Dentistry. We are joined today by Dr. Jeremy Graham who will take us through his journey as a Forensic Dentist. You’ll hear some incredible stories about his involvement in the 2004 Boxing Day Tsunami, Black Saturday Bushfires, and the MH17 disaster. His reflections on these events are certainly inspiring and it’s amazing to see the ways in which our profession can contribute to a greater cause. This is Season 2 Episode 3.
