Codes for Orthodontic/Craniofacial/Forensic Photographic Views and View Sets. High quality photographic documentation is central to optimizing orthodontic, craniofacial, and forensic clinical records. This white paper shows how codes, enumerated terms, systematized nomenclature, templates and informatics standards can be used to improve the interoperability and transmissibility of visible light intraoral and extraoral clinical photographs.
Use Cases of the Orthodontic Electronic Health Record. The purpose of this technical report is to create an approved list of common use-cases that define the utilization of the electronic health record within the scope of orthodontics.
This report provides a technical specification based on the Direct Secure Messaging Protocol for the secure electronic transmission of all protected health information (PHI) in dentistry.
ADA Technical Report No. 1048 for Attachment of DICOM Dataset Using E-Mail. This report promotes patient care and oral health through the application of information technology to dentistry's clinical and administrative operations; to develop standards, Standards and technical reports. (2011, R2015)
The Secure Exchange and Utilization of Digital Images in Dentistry. This report promotes patient care and oral health through the application of information technology to dentistry's clinical and administrative operations; to develop standards, Standards and technical reports. (2011, R2015)
Forensic Dental Data Set. This report promotes patient care and oral health through the application of information technology to dentistry's clinical and administrative operations; to develop standards, Standards and technical reports.
ADA Technical Report No.1059 Guidelines for the Application of the DICOM Standard to Radiographic - ADA1059-2020. In the current DICOM documentation, cephalograms are not addressed directly. This technical report (TR) was developed to fill the gap in such a way as to provide imaging equipment vendors an approved way of storing cephalograms along with their clinically relevant data, in an interoperable way.
the use of technological devices has not always successfully increased the efficiency of orthodontic practices. often, new technology is introduced into the practice too soon, effectively interrupting the learning process of their older counterparts and hindering optimization. consequently, the ultimate goal of efficiency can easily become eclipsed by indulging into new orthodontic gadgets.cone beam computed tomography can similarly get in the way, if the users are not aware of such phenomena. in this article the author relates how these can negatively affect efficiency, while explaining the role of software interoperability for the ergonomics of the orthodontic practice. some suggestions on how to prepare for the future are provided.
Today, orthodontists should not need to burden their work load with tasks such as figuring out how to send patient information to colleagues or how to share the same patient record across different software programs. In a long-term attempt to lighten these tasks, we are developing a standard for electronic orthodontic patient records to enable a seamless interchange of data between software programs. This article describes a practical proposal that integrates 2 existing standards, HL7 and DICOM, to create a standard for electronic orthodontic patient records.
