Soft Tissues: #
Soft tissues refer to the tissues that surround, support, and protect the teeth. This includes the gums (gingiva), the periodontal ligament, and the dental pulp inside the tooth. These tissues are crucial in maintaining oral health and supporting the teeth.
This feature is completely independent of the Baseline and Plan.
This feature allows doctors to examine the teeth and mark the affected parts easily and closely. Focusing on internal, and external structures, dental pulp, gums, and soft tissues helps identify and address specific dental issues effectively.
This screen provides a detailed interface for examining the soft tissues of the oral cavity. It allows doctors to visualize and mark findings related to specific areas of soft tissue. Below are the key features and functionalities:
