To view and add the diagnostic findings for a patient, go to the Findings tab of the smart panel.
Note
This panel is opened by default when opening the 3D or 2D tooth workspace.
To add a diagnostic finding, click the search field and select the finding. Scroll through the list or enter (a part of) the name of the trauma to search for the diagnostic finding. Click the finding to add it. To add a diagnostic finding that is not in the list, enter the custom finding text in the search field and click Add or press the Enter key.
The number of findings for the workspace is added between brackets on the Findings tab.
If the finding is added in the 3D or 2D tooth workspace, the finding is added to the specific tooth. If the finding is created in a non-tooth-specific workspace (3D patient, 3D panoramic, intraoral images, etc.), the finding is added without a tooth number. Click the tooth number placeholder and type the tooth number to assign the finding to a specific tooth.
To add a note for the finding, select the tile with the finding and type the note in the text box.

On the 3D tooth and the 2D tooth workspace a navigation tooth chart is shown in the upper-right corner of the Findings tab.
Note
If the patient is younger than eight years old, the navigation tooth chart for primary teeth is shown. To make changes to the tooth chart (exchanging primary teeth with adult teeth, indicating which teeth are missing, etc.), go to the diagnosis in the patient menu
The active tooth, for which the data are shown in the workspace, is highlighted in green. If a tooth has at least one finding, it has a colored outline. The color depends on the treatment status of the finding.
To define the treatment status of a finding, select on the following statuses:
Status | Description | Color |
Condition | The finding is not critical, but may need to be watched to track its evolution over time. | Gray |
Treatment plan | The finding needs to be treated. | Red |
Follow-up | The finding is discovered at an early stage and should be watched. | Yellow |
Completed | The treatment for this finding has been completed. | Blue |
Press the left arrow key to go to the previous tooth or the right arrow key to go to the next tooth. Alternatively, below the navigation tooth chart, click the left arrow or the right arrow
. Click a tooth on the navigation tooth chart to select another scanned tooth. The tooth workspace for the selected tooth is opened.
The moment you add a finding, the current workspace configuration is saved as a bookmark for this finding. The bookmark allows you to navigate back to the workspace where the tooth pathology can be clearly seen.
To navigate back to the bookmark, select the finding, hover the tooth icon in front of the finding, and click on the appearing arrow.
To replace the bookmarked configuration with the current configuration, click and select Bookmark.
