Product News from Dentally
Get ready for a game-changing enhancement to your imaging workflow. The next Dentally Vision update (coming soon*) will feature the all-new FMX View (SuperFMX) and upgrades to the Exam View.
These enhancements are designed to give you greater flexibility, better visuals, and smoother navigation, for an easier imaging experience so you can focus on delivering exceptional patient care.
The New Modality View (SuperFMX)
A revolutionary way to view and organise patient images based on anatomical or tiled modality-specific layouts. Easily navigate through the images in a stack by using the film strip navigator.
Enhanced Exam View (Default View)
These updates bring improved visuals like fonts and colours and streamlined navigation. We are introducing a clutter-free Light Box Mode for cleaner displays, and easier access to key settings for better control and customisation.

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 are rolling out now, so get ready to enhance your entire charting experience 🚀
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.
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:
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.

We are excited to unveil root charting*, designed to enhance your practice’s charting efficiency and accuracy. Here’s how you can get started and make the most of this powerful tool.
*This will slowly be released across all sites with tooth status over the coming week.
Comprehensive patient records: Keep detailed records of all treatments, ensuring no information is missed ever again!
Enhanced visibility: Avoid the risk of root treatments being invisible, ensuring complete transparency even with the roots minimised from view.
Flexible and customisable: Tailor your chart view to your needs. Using the ‘Chart settings’ you can switch between views easily for a flexible charting experience.
Improved clinical efficiency: Quickly access detailed tooth histories and current statuses by hovering over a specific tooth/root.

You can use the ⚙️ ’Chart settings’ to adjust the visibility settings to switch between detailed and condensed views, depending on your preferences.

We have listened to your feedback and can now share some exciting changes to transform how you create and manage clinical notes.
This update ensures that clinical notes are never missed, lost or overwritten, even when different team members are working on the patient's plan at the same time.
We’ve addressed two key scenarios to help make your charting experience as seamless and stress-free as possible:
Head over to our help guide here for more information on both scenarios and to familiarise yourself with your new clinical notes workflow.
This update reinforces Dentally's commitment to improving efficiency and safeguarding patient data. With these enhancements, you can work confidently knowing your clinical notes are safe and sound.
We introduced ‘Personal’ treatment plan templates alongside ‘Shared’ ones, to help you streamline your own individual charting process and they just got even better!
When creating and using treatment plan templates, ‘Personal’ templates will now retain additional details such as clinical notes and any custom price and duration settings. This update is all about giving you more customisation when creating templates for a smoother surgery experience.
When saving a treatment plan template as ‘Shared’, it will behave as templates always have – visible to all users and applying the default treatment settings like pricing, duration, and notes.
When you use a shared treatment plan template, the items are arranged according to their original setup, perfect for standardised procedures across multiple users and locations.
Here’s where it gets interesting! ‘Personal’ templates are individual to each user, and they now allow you to save your customised tweaks! 🎉
When saving a ‘Personal’ template, Dentally will now retain:
Now, every time you apply your ‘Personal’ template, it will be tailored to your exact needs — no more need for manual adjustments!
Remember, you can even apply multiple templates to a single treatment plan. Start with one template, and if the plan evolves, just layer on another! This makes it even easier for you to create comprehensive, efficient treatment plans.

This feature allows you to describe how a treatment affects the tooth it is charted on, providing more clarity for your team 🎉

We recently added the ability for practices with tooth status and root charting enabled to quickly update a tooth status by clicking the 'socket' area around the root. This ability has been extended to be available to all users even if they have 'Root View' toggled off in their chart preferences.
Improvements to personal treatment plan templates will reduce the amount of changes needed after a template has been applied to a plan.
