In 1776, physician Joseph Warren commanded the battle at Breed’s Hill (often incorrectly called Bunker Hill). Dr. Warren was killed during the battle and subsequently the first documented case of a positive forensic identification in America occurred when silversmith/dentist Paul Revere recognized Dr. Warren’s prosthesis, a product of the Revere dental practice. Paul Revere is most famous for his midnight ride warning of the British invasion, which resulted in the American’s victory at the Battle of Lexington and Concord.
