I am a general dentist but do about 50% ortho.

I have never seen a PMS for orthodontists so I don't know what is standard.

The images module works quite well for records and the like.
We use touch screens and a stylus to draw on the chart.
a vert slash on each tooth that is bracketed
each archwire size has a different color 018ss is red 016ss is lt red, 018 niti is blue etc
stops , ocs, elastics and the like all have an easily drawn symbol

limitations:

we can't save a copy of the chart easily yet (tho it is fairly high on the voting list so I hope soon)
