INFORMATION ABOUT THE INSIGNIA / EMBLEM / LOGO:

The American Dental Association started using this insignia as the official symbol of dentistry in 1965. The emblem of dentistry is taken from Asclepius, a Greek god of medicine and healing. His symbol is a physician’s staff with a snake wrapped around it. The snake’s shedding of skin represented healing and rejuvenation. In honor of Asclepius, ancient Greeks would use non-venomous snakes in healing rituals and let them crawl freely on the floor among the sick and injured.

On the periphery of the emblem, you will notice two Greek letters, Delta ( Δ ) and Omicron ( Ο ). Delta represents dentistry, and Omicron is a symbol for odont, or tooth. The word “Dentistry” is inscribed upon the bottom half of the circle.

The interior of the circle is a particular shade of purple called lilac, which dates back to the National Association of Dental Faculties in 1897. To this day, dental graduates use purple in their gowns and caps, and the color is often found in dental publications.

In the center of the insignia there is snake coiled around a physician’s staff comes from Asclepius, the ancient Greek god of medicine and healing.  Behind the snake there are two branches bearing 20 berries and 32 leaves representative of the permanent and temporary teeth.

This nifty little holder is approximately 5.75" x 3.25" (7.5" when open). This is the perfect size to keep your passport in a secure place, while being easily stowed in a purse or pocket.

The passport holder has a beautiful inside made of faux leather, while the outside is a smooth slick vinyl like material printed with your personal design.

On the inside there is a pocket flap to keep your passport. On the front of this flap are two credit card holders for cash or cards. On the other side there is an elastic band to either keep your passport holder closed by wrapping it around the back or to keep your passport securely open inside your holder.

If you wish to keep your passport open while in the holder you can easily tuck its back cover into the pocket flap on the right side and tuck the front cover underneath the elastic band on the left side.

Compared to our vinyl passport holder, this one is a little thicker. It has a more traditional and classy look compared to the more slim and practical vinyl holder. This one also has a few extra features, such as the credit card holders and elastic band, that the vinyl holder does not. Both are stupendous choices depending on what you like or need.
