Forensic dentistry in the Cerritos air disaster.
On Aug 31, 1986, 82 people were killed in the worst air disaster in the history of Los Angeles International Airport. The Los Angeles County Forensic Dentistry Team worked with the Medical Examiner-Coroner's Office, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and other agencies during the identification process. The investigation demonstrated the importance of involving forensic anthropologists and forensic dentists along with investigative agencies in the at-scene search for evidence at disaster sites.
