How to get there

From the Patient menu, under Clinical, select Chart.

Note: If the correct patient is not already selected, use the Patient Search field to access the patient's record.

On the patient's record > Chart tab, select the teeth whose dentition you want to change in the graphical tooth chart.

Tip: You can also leave no teeth selected or select all teeth to change the dentition for the whole mouth.
ClickTap the Permanent Dentition () or Primary Dentition() button.

All the selected teeth now show in the graphical chart according to the specified dentition.

Example: Changing the dentition to permanent changes tooth F to 9 or changing the dentition to primary changes tooth 15 to *.
