I have created a couple of conditions in my Procedure List and numbered them C0001 Tooth Decay and C0002 WatchIncipient Decay.I have assigned them a Paint Type (Filling Dark) and also assigned an override color to these codes.Since starting to use Open Dental, we would chart existing restorations.When the restorations were defective and we treatment planned a new restoration, the new treatment planned restorations would always cover the existing restoration in the tooth chart.
![]() This made it simple to look at the tooth chart and visually see any treatment planned restorations. Yesterday, I charted the decay (conditions) and then I treatment planned the restorations to restore the decay. Unfortunately, the treatment planned restorations did not trump or cover up the decay. I cant visually see the treatment planned restorations on the chart - I still see the conditions (the decay). Is the program functioning as designed I would think the treatment planned restorations should cover the conditions on the tooth chart. ![]() I will spare you all the technical discussion and say that our planned solution is to have a time field added to each procedure. That way, if the proceduresconditions all have the same date, they will still end up on the chart in the sequence that you enter them. Until then, try to trick the program into showing them in a different order in the Progress Notes. I know that sounds like a lame suggestion, but I still think this falls under the heading of an enhancement rather than a bug fix. The main reason I say this is that if we fix it, there will be many annoying subtle consequences. It would cause many more bugs to try to guess what order the user wants the procedures to be layered. At least the way it is now, you have control over the order of the layers by setting dates.
