There are 99 speed buttons available and you your Oasis installation will have come with a standard set of buttons. Clicking the "2" will display the second group of 50 buttons.
...
CHTSYMxx.ico The icons that appear on the "surface enhancements" tooth graphic.
CNOTESxx.ico Icons shown against clinical notes
In our case, there is a CHTSPD37.ico in the icons folder, and Oasis draws that icon on the speed button.
...
There's a lot to absorb in this screen. There are four main sections (and one of them - Item Codes to Surfaces Selected - does not show unless the "Base Item Code on Surfaces Selected" is ticked in the Toolbox Options section).
The fields at the top left are as follows:
Toolbox Code The Toolbox Code - in this case the pseudo code METALLIC
Notes Description The description that will be written to the clinical notes when this code is used. It may be different to the standard description assigned to the individual item codes used.
Notes Picture Number An icon to be used in the clinical notes screen (CNOTESxx.ico).
Extended Treatment Plan Description An alternate description to be used in the Treatment Plan window for this item.
Diagnosis Number A diagnostic worksheet number to be loaded whenever this item code is used.
The Toolbox Options
Suppress reference to tooth number When ticked, there will be no tooth number referenced for this item code. For example, an 012 would not have a reference to a tooth number.
Paint complete region inside tooth When ticked, the graphic option selected will cover the entire region of the tooth
Paint graphic region outside tooth When ticked, the graphic option selected will be drawn in the area between the tooth graphic and the tooth number
Paint all teeth in the same quadrant When ticked, the graphic chosen will be applied to all teeth in the same quadrant
Paint all teeth in the adjacent quadrant When ticked, the graphic chosen will be applied to all teeth in the adjacent quadrant. This would be useful if you were setting up a full upper denture if used with the previous option.
Paint all teeth in all quadrants When ticked, the graphic chosen will be applied to all teeth (e.g. full upper and lower dentures)
Base item code on surfaces selected When ticked, the Item Codes to Surfaces Selected box will appear and this item code is now dependent on the selection of surfaces on the tooth
Explode as group when invoicing If the Toolbox Item code carries the same name as an Item Group, then the items in the group will be shown in the invoice screen rather than just the pseudo code.
Add surface details to clinical notes In conjunction with the Base Item Code of Surfaces Selected, the surfaces selected when using the code will be added to the clinical notes
Don't add to treatment plan When ticked, this item will not be added to any treatment plan for the patient
Mark tooth as absent When ticked, this item code will mark a tooth as absent
Blank selected surfaces When ticked, this item will blank any surfaces selected (across multiple teeth)
Mark tooth as missing When ticked, will mark a tooth as missing
Use synonym item code When ticked, will force the item to use it's synonym item code
Don't add to clinical notes When ticked, the item will not be added to clinical notes
Don't add to invoices When ticked, the item will not be added to the patient's invoice
Write once only to treatment plan When ticked, this item will only be added once to the treatment plan - useful for things like dentures where multiple teeth are nominated but you only want one entry in the treatment plan
Don't explode as group in clinical notes Where an item code has the same name as a group, it will not be expanded to the individual group items in the clinical notes. It will just appear as the pseudo code
Add to task manager on selection When ticked, will add a task to the Task Manager when the item is selected
Add to task manager on completion When ticked will add a task to the Task Manager when the item is completed
Create new visit header When ticked, this item will add a new visit header to a treatment plan. Lets you create a visit header from a speed button rather than have to select it from the menu
Unmark tooth as absent When ticked, will toggle an absent tooth back to being present
Group contains visit headers When ticked, indicates the group related to this item has visit headers included.
Item Codes to Surfaces Selected
This box allows you to define individual item codes to the number of surfaces selected - both deciduous and permanent teeth.
Selected Surface Painting
This box allows you to define the graphic representation of the item on the tooth. When used in conjunction with the Item Codes to Surfaces Selected box, it will be the graphic effect on individual surfaces.
There are three graphic options you can select:
- Icon
- Colour (as defined in Preferences, My Work, Diagnosis Sheets and Clinical Notes section - Colour Schemes)
- Character
Where the tilde character (~) is used, a colour will be applied. Where the "at" (@) symbol is used, the number entered will correspond to the CHARTSxx.ico icon. Where a keyboard character is used (e.g. "W"), it will be displayed in whatever colour you nominate in the colour/icon column.
There are four quadrants that you can nominate. This is to allow you to use varying icons that display correctly on upper and lower teeth.
Now getting back to our Button 37 - Filling.
To use the button, open the Restorative Chart for a patient and select some tooth surfaces.
Now click the speed button "Fill" and the following will happen.
Clicking the button has automatically painted the tooth surfaces with the nominated colour blocks, and in this case added two items into the patient's treatment plan (shown on the right).
Note: The charting system in this example is set in "Plan" mode, meaning all items applied to the Proposed Treatment component of the chart will be added to a treatment plan.
