Missing/Primary Teeth
Easily mark teeth as missing or show primary teeth on the Graphical Tooth Chart.
In the Chart Module, click the Missing/Primary tab.
Missing or hidden teeth are recorded at the patient's first visit, before entering treatment. This information is required when submitting claims and allows proper selection of pontics for bridges. Teeth marked as missing are not displayed on the Graphical Tooth Chart and are marked skipped by default creating a Perio Chart.
