See it working
Two short films: prescribing, then IOTN.
Search the BNF and SDCEP while the patient is in the chair, then check IOTN before an orthodontic referral.
What you get
Chairside references, beside the note.
Common medicines one tap away
Twelve common dental medicines and the dental formulary sit a tap away. Your recent lookups stay at the top, on any computer.
Child in the chair
Switch to Child and every drug page opens in BNF for Children.
Say what you prescribed
As you record, say what you have prescribed. AI Notes drafts it into the note for you to check.
Perio staging and grading
Enter bone loss, teeth lost and risk factors to see the BSP stage and grade, and add pocketing and bleeding to see whether it is stable. Use in note adds the result.
IOTN Checker
Tap the worst feature you see. At grade 3, add the Aesthetic Component to see whether the NHS threshold is met, then copy the result or refer with the reason filled in.

Questions dentists ask.
Which prescribing references are included?
The BNF and SDCEP, searched directly, with every SDCEP topic listed, twelve common dental medicines one tap away and the dental formulary. Switch to Child and drug pages open in BNF for Children.
Does it write the prescription into my note?
Say what you prescribed while you record, and AI Notes drafts it into the note for you to check.
What does the perio calculator give me?
The BSP stage and grade from bone loss, teeth lost, extent, complexity and risk factors, and, with the deepest pocket and bleeding, whether the condition is currently stable, in remission or unstable. Use in note adds the result to your note.
What does the IOTN Checker do?
It is the IOTN chart made tappable. Tap the worst feature you see, add the Aesthetic Component at grade 3 to see whether the NHS threshold is met, then copy the result into your notes or refer to an orthodontist with the reason filled in.
Is the IOTN result final?
No. It is a quick screening guide. The orthodontist confirms it at assessment.
Look it up, write it up, move on.
