Your latest chart updates 🦷🚀

We’re excited to announce some updates to the Dentally chart and introduce the new socket selection feature for users with Tooth status and our Root Charting early adoption users.

These chart updates will be coming next week, so get ready to enhance your entire charting experience 🚀

The Dentally odontogram chart has had an update!

We have made some strides in enhancing the logic behind your chart screen to enhance your user experience. Based on valuable feedback from you, our users, we've made significant changes to how missing teeth are displayed.

The odontogram view will now* only show teeth where a tooth is present, meaning icons for missing teeth no longer appear on both the base and treatment planning lines. It’s important to note that you can still chart whole tooth treatments, such as implants, bridges, or dentures, over gaps where no tooth is present.

This change aims to reduce confusion and prevent treatments from being accidentally added to the wrong teeth, ensuring a smoother and more accurate charting experience.

Read more about the updated odontogram view over on the Help Centre here.

🚨 Important: *This feature is currently (as of July 2024) in the early adoption phase and is only available to sites using the Tooth Status backfill.

Introducing Socket Selection for Root users 🦷

Socket selection is here for root users! Simplify your base charting process with the new socket selection drop down list, This is particularly useful when initially base charting a patient’s permanent dentition or updating their status on subsequent visits.

How to Use Socket Selection:

• Navigate to the desired patient’s chart and ensure Root View is enabled.
• Hover over a root to see it become selectable, with a shaded area indicating the socket.
• Right-click on this area to access a drop-down list of available tooth statuses.
• Select the required tooth status, and the tooth icon on the graphical chart will update accordingly.

This feature can be used alongside normal base charting or even while treatment planning, streamlining your workflow and improving accuracy.

Learn more about using socket selection in our handy Help Centre guide here.

🚨 Important: Socket selection is only available to users with Root View enabled.
