Periodontal charting is an essential feature within a dental practice management system (PMS). Periodontal charting helps track gum health, including measurements of pocket depth, recession, bleeding points, and more, enabling precise diagnosis of periodontal disease. It also allows dental professionals to monitor the progression of gum health and diseases over time. By tracking and identifying early signs of gum disease, providers can recommend preventive treatments improving long-term quality of care and outcomes.
CareStack offers a comprehensive built-in periodontal charting module. This module helps dental providers accurately and quickly capture key metrics associated with the gum health of patients, including pocket depth, gingival recession, bleeding, suppuration, and furcation. The chart is presented in an easy-to-understand layout, with color-coded indicators, comparisons, and preset templates to aid providers and clinical staff. The metrics from the periodontal charting module also help in creating accurate patient reports and referral letters, where you can embed the periodontal charting information easily.
