I'm sure this has been mentioned on the bbs, but I can't find it. I have tried to perio chart implants by NOT setting the teeth as missing and then hiding the teeth, but the perio chart still shows the missing teeth as grey.
I should explain - I did an initial charting and midway realized that the missing teeth would not be charted. I set the teeth to not missing but hidden but grey areas remained. Any way to correct this? And yes, I know that I can manually chart in the gray areas, but would like to automatically do this.

Re: Perio Charting for implants
Setting "skip teeth" in perio is totally and completely independent from any missing or hidden statuses in the Chart. All you have to do is highlight those tooth numbers in the perio chart and click the "skip teeth" button to toggle them back to normal.

Just a thought - maybe if the "skip teeth" button was changed to conform to the "missing"/"not missing" in the chart module, it would be more intuitive.

Re: Perio Charting for implants
But they are different. An implant tooth is missing, but not skipped. And a tooth planned for extraction might be not missing, but skipped. They are different.
