NOTE: You can also select the whole quarter by tapping Select All button, and then deselect any tooth of a different condition. If you click Select All by mistake, you can easily discard changes by clicking on this button again.

If you need to record a detailed diagnosis and treatment for each particular tooth, please follow THESE steps.
5. Tap the notes icon to add a note to the entire Dental Chart:
Usually, dental procedures are accompanied by monitoring of anesthesia so you can switch between the Anesthetic Sheet and Dental Chart with one click. Please read THIS article for more details.
6. Dental Chart should be finalized once the treatment is complete. After the finalization Dental Report will be available along with any other reports (please read THIS article for reference).
NOTE. At this time, you can only have one Dental Chart per hospitalization, so once you finalize it, you will not be able to create another Dental Chart for the same patient. That is why, if you have an incorrect Dental Chart, we recommend deleting it, rather than finalizing it.
