Version 8.5 of the R4+ software includes the following enhancements:
As part of the ongoing project of Dental Reform in Scotland, several changes come into effect for New Dental Courses of Treatment from August 1st, 2024, as follows:
New Bridge Type Annotations to record the purpose of each position within the Bridge.
Reinstated Materials for use with Crowns, Veneers & Inlays.
New D001 Type Annotations to record various usage as a Crown or Bridge. (See Note below.)
New Core & Post Type Annotations to record the Fabrication & Material used. (See Note below.)
New FP17 Dental Claim Examination Metrics for Courses involving an Item 1a Examination. (See Note below.)
New FP17 Dental Claim Treatment Reason Capture for Courses involving an Item 1c Examination.
Regarding these Regulatory Changes, be aware that:
D001, due to its multiple use nature, is currently identified by default as a Crown. When used, it will prompt for its use as a Crown or a Bridge in each Tooth's position.
Where Item 1(a) Treatment is present, the Examination Tooth Counts will calculate based on the current state of the mouth, allowing for review and correction as necessary before FP17 transmission. Highest BPE will also be harvested if a suitable BPE exists on the Patient Record. These captures are Patient age controlled so are unused for Under 7’s, Optional between 7 and 18, and Required from 18 and older, based on Date of Acceptance.
3Shapte Unite Dental Software Integration (CLI)3Shapte Unite Dental Software Integration (CLI)
We have implemented Integration Support for 3Shape Unite. This
requires the 3Shape Command Line
Interface to be installed from the 3Shape App Store alongside
R4+ and the 3Shape Unite Software on each Workstation.
This can then be enabled through the Clinical
Chart > Tools > Options > X-Ray Programs tab.
The 3Shape Unite default plug-in location is the assumed path,
but can be changed by browsing to the DentalDesktopCmd.exe
location if a Workstation used a custom 3Shape Unite installation
location instead.
This Integration allows the Patient Details to be shared with 3Shape Unite to Create, Merge or Update Patient Records between the two systems.
This update process is one way from R4+ to 3Shape Unite so any changes to Patients' Personal Details should always be maintained primarily in R4+ and then synchronised to 3Shape Unite.
Further details on enabling this Integration can be found under the How To section in the 3Shape Help Center.
