Abstract: 

To identifying the origin, reduce contamination and using the Human teeth to didactic approaches, the Human Teeth Bank (HTB) was created. By actively acting in academic activities, assisting in research and pre-clinical practices, it is essential to organize the internal registry of the entrances and exits of the teeth. Thus, it was designed a computer system capable of managing automated reports such procedures and substituting the manual counting, that was done previously. It was developed in the web platform, the system allows the access of coordinators and trainees so that they can control the amount of teeth stored in bottles.To register a bottle is informed the input data, the number of teeth, group and the condition of the teeth. Once registered, the bottles may be withdrawal and outlet is registered for further consultation. The HTB has a collection around 17.000 teeth, which were managed manually, by notes in a log book. The software Tooth.Baseorganizes and considerably reduces the time spent by HTB trainees in daily activities, in addition to providing reports that generate more accurate information on the amount of information and quality of teeth found, as well as those that were excluded.
