Click on the tooth in the chart and treatment plan the extraction. After it's been added, double click on the tooth you just charted in the progress notes to edit it. In the edit window change the tooth number by adding 50 to the original tooth number. E.g.,

Supernumerary #8 = 50 + 8 = 58
#16 = 50 + 16 = 66
etc.

For insurance, I'll usually put something like 'Supernumerary #8A" in the Insurance notes box.

Click OK to save the changes
