Adstra Charting Now Available as Stand-Alone

ADSTRA Charting is an easy to use, complete charting solution. The comprehensive software program allows users to create and manage odontograms. Dental charts can be created for examinations, for completed treatment, and for planned treatment. There are four views of the chart: maxillary, mandibular, buccal, and palatal-lingual. The charting tools are grouped by type: general, periodontal, restorative, and endodontic. Multiple charts can be opened at the same time and pockets and recessions are represented graphically. A number of reports—or the whole chart as it’s viewed—can be printed.

ADSTRA Charting offers an array of tools for charting tooth conditions such as missing teeth, un-erupted teeth, partially erupted teeth, tooth rotation, impacted teeth, drifted, tilted, extruded, submerged, decalcification, hyper calcification, loose contact, open contact, root canal treatment, apical area, retrograde filling, pins, posts, root caries, complete crown, 3/4 crown, extraction needed, sealants, veneers, cavities, fillings, and many more. Users can set their own preferences for general chart, periodontal chart, restoration materials, and the connection between procedures and tools. Users can also define exam templates and incorporate them into the patient’s chart. Extra-oral examination and occlusal examination are built-in features.

The program also includes the ability to input, store, and review measurements for periodontal readings. Users can measure and enter gingival recession and pocket depths, and chart bleeding, suppuration, furcation, blunted papilla, cratered papilla, erosion, attrition, abrasion, and mobility. For charting plaque, a special surface map appears. Users can compare exams for values or changes in pockets or recessions, and calculate indices.
