Watch a tooth

Post by fishdrzig » Thu Feb 26, 2009 2:47 am

When charting, what is the recommended way to put a "watch" on a tooth for incipient decay?

I use a color lighter than the restoration that I will I will replace. This helps me to double check the area next time I do an exam. I then enter a procedure button of watch so I check it off as I am doing the exam.

I put it in as a note in the box below the chart.
