Periodontal Charting Introduction
Periodontal health is an important component of a patient's overall oral health. Diseases like gingivitis can seriously impact the quality of the teeth, gums, and mouth. QSIDental Web has a comprehensive periodontal module to help chart and track the patient's periodontal health. This module supports full charting of pocket depth, gingival margin, and other indicators in both numerical and graph formats.
Additionally, this module helps track the improvement or deterioration in the patient's condition by comparing the periodontal examination results over time. These comparisons enable a practice to provide consistent service and build a strong relationship with the patient.
