Dental Charting Software Development

Universal and FDI tooth numbering with full adult and primary dentition support. Surface-level condition notation covering decay, existing restorations, missing teeth, implants, crowns, veneers, and sealants -- each recorded at the specific surface where the condition exists. Treatment status tracked per surface: planned, in progress, and completed, with the date of completion recorded. Clinical notes attached to individual teeth so the clinician can document a finding or a treatment decision in context. Historical treatment view showing every condition and procedure recorded for each tooth across the full patient history, with dates visible at a glance.

Six-point probing depth recording per tooth with buccal and lingual measurements captured for each of the three sites. Bleeding on probing, furcation involvement, tooth mobility, and recession measurements recorded in the same exam session. Sequential perio exam comparison so the clinician can view probing depths from the current exam alongside measurements from the previous one or more exams -- progression and improvement are visible without leaving the chart view. Automated perio risk classification based on recorded measurements so high-risk patients are flagged for monitoring interval adjustments. Perio chart export for specialist referral documentation.

Multi-phase treatment plan creation with priority sequencing across phases. Procedure items linked to specific teeth and surfaces so the plan reflects the clinical chart directly. Case presentation view showing planned work by phase with the fee estimate and insurance portion calculated for each item -- the patient is looking at their actual cost before the treatment conversation begins. Pre-authorisation linkage per treatment item for procedures that require prior approval. Treatment plan acceptance recording with digital signature. Pending plan tracking dashboard showing all unsigned plans by patient, provider, and total value. Plan amendment workflow for cases where treatment scope changes after the plan is accepted.

Bitewing and periapical X-ray display in context of the chart view so the clinician is not navigating to a separate imaging application to see what a radiograph shows for a specific tooth. Intraoral camera image attachment per tooth, linked to the visit date and the clinical note for that appointment. CBCT integration where applicable for practices with cone beam imaging in their clinical workflow. Radiographic findings notation linked to tooth-level chart entries so the imaging record and the clinical record are connected -- a finding noted on a radiograph appears against the relevant tooth in the chart without the clinician entering it twice.

Appointment-specific clinical notes with structured templates by procedure type -- a restorative appointment template captures different fields than a periodontal maintenance template. Voice-to-text input for clinicians who prefer to dictate rather than type chairside. Notes linked to specific teeth in the chart so the documentation is in context with the clinical record rather than a separate free-text block attached only to the appointment. Previous visit notes accessible from the current appointment view without navigating away from the chart. Configurable template library managed by the practice administrator, not requiring a software update to add a new procedure type.

Encrypted storage for all clinical records, periodontal charts, and patient images with access controls applied at both the record and field level. Role-based access management so clinical staff see clinical records, billing staff see billing records, and administrative staff see scheduling records -- with audit logging recording every access and every change. Patient consent documentation stored against the patient record. Record export for specialist referral and insurance pre-authorisation in standard formats. Data retention workflows for records subject to state-specific retention requirements. Business Associate Agreement coverage for all data handling in the system.
