Opening the Dental Chart

Open a patient's profile and click the Dental Chart tab. You'll see an interactive tooth diagram where you can mark treatments directly on each tooth. The chart supports both FDI (two-digit) and Universal numbering systems.

Pro Tip: Switch numbering systems in Settings › Organization if your clinic uses a different standard.

Marking Procedures on Teeth

Click on any tooth to open the procedure selector. Choose from your service list — fillings, crowns, root canals, extractions, and more. The tooth highlights to show it has a procedure, and you can add multiple procedures per tooth.

3

Viewing Treatment History

Hover over any tooth to see its complete treatment history in a popup. Every procedure ever done on that tooth is visible — date, doctor, and notes. This helps you track long-term dental health and plan future treatments.

4

Adult vs Pediatric Charts

DentDock automatically shows the correct chart type based on the patient's age. Pediatric patients see a primary teeth chart, while adults see the permanent teeth chart. The numbering adjusts automatically.

5

Linking to Treatment Plans

Procedures marked on the dental chart can be linked to active treatment plans. This keeps your charting aligned with your treatment planning and billing.

Note: Linked procedures appear in both the dental chart and the treatment plan view.
