Supernumerary Ext

Post by roybloom »

How do you place the ext of supernumerary teeth in tx plan? I use 1 and 1(1) for an upper right and OD will only let me place 1 twice. Have to add note.

I believe the correct way to designate supernumeraries is by adding 50 to the tooth number. So a supernumerary wisdom tooth beside tooth 1 would be tooth 51.

That is correct. Open Dental will let you put in the supernumerary numbers that way.

Sounds good.

Is it possible to use that facility with International numbers?

Of course. International supernumerary teeth have their own numbering system which we also support.

I was wrong. FDI doesn't seem to support supernumerary notation. I was thinking of perm vs. pri.
