Chart conditions, existing work and treatment

Available to

Dentists, dental assistants and hygienists.

The toolbox above the odontogram turns a click on a tooth into a record. Pick a tool, then select a surface and a tooth. Nothing on the chart is final until it is signed or approved, and each click can be undone until then.

Chart a condition or treatment

  2. Select the Conditions or Existing panel and pick a tool.
  3. Select a tooth. For surface work, select the surface in the tooth's small diagram.
  4. The result appears as a dashed draft finding in your open assessment. Select it again to undo it.
  5. For treatment, select the Treatment panel, pick a procedure and select the tooth. The item is added to the draft treatment plan.

A care panel adds a whole set of plan items for the tooth you choose, in one click. Examples are a hygiene visit, a crown package, a root canal with post and core and crown, an extraction with an implant, and paediatric prevention.
