Tooth Chart
Record what's in the patient's mouth: findings on each tooth and surface, with a history per tooth
The tooth chart shows every tooth with its roots, the way dentists are used to seeing it, and a five-surface circle for each tooth between the upper and lower arches. It belongs to the patient, not to one visit, so it carries over from visit to visit.
Open it from an appointment with a dentist, or from the patient's Dental tab.
Reading the chart
- Numbering follows FDI: 11 to 48 for permanent teeth, 51 to 85 for primary (milk) teeth. Switch between Permanent and Primary at the top of the chart.
- The chart is drawn from the dentist's side: the patient's right is on the screen's left, in both Arabic and English.
- Hover a tooth to see its number, name and what's recorded on it. Hover a surface to see which one it is.
| Color | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Red | Caries |
| Blue | Existing work: fillings, crowns, root canals, posts, bridges |
| Teal | Sealant |
| Dashed orange | Planned work, in the treatment plan view |
| Green | Done in your clinic |
| Dashed outline | Missing tooth |
The five surfaces are mesial (M), distal (D), buccal (B), lingual (L) or palatal (P) for upper teeth, and occlusal (O) or incisal (I) in the middle.
Recording findings
Dentists, owners and admins can edit the chart. Reception can view it.
Choose Current status
The Current status view records what is in the patient's mouth today.
Pick a finding
Healthy, Caries, Filling, Sealant, Crown, Fracture, Root canal, Post & core, Bridge, Implant or Missing.
Tap the tooth or a surface
Caries, fillings and sealants go on a surface: tap it in the circle between the arches. The others apply to the whole tooth: tap the tooth. Tap again to remove it. Healthy clears the tooth.
Every change saves immediately.
Tooth history
Tap any tooth to see its name, what's on it now, what's planned, and its history: every finding added or removed and every treatment done, with the date and the doctor.
Before anaesthesia
If the patient has allergies, chronic conditions or current medications in their medical alerts, a red strip shows them above the chart.
