YOUR BEST TOOL FOR MONITORING AND MANAGING PERIODONTAL HEALTH AND DISEASE

THE PROBLEM

Periodontal charting is laborious, even painful and difficult. Management of periodontal disease should be easier.

THE SOLUTION ePERIOCARE

Charting is easy and fast. And it marks the progression of disease and long-term changes visually.

ePerioCare makes the management of patients with periodontal disease easier, satisfying, and more productive

WHAT SPECIFICALLY DOES ePERIOCARE DO?

1. presents a charting interface (and a prompted system) that marks periodontal findings and tracks those findings for changes
2. makes it easy to recognize progression of disease-- especially the position of the attachment level on the tooth surface
3. provides analytical reports of changes in "gingival margin position" "pocket depth" and the calculated (clinical) attachment level

Easy- to- understand reports show changes requiring clinical action. Patient education reports are also provided.

Time-consuming study of complex periodontal charts is no longer necessary.

WHO IS ePERIOCARE FOR?

1. Anyone avoiding periodontal care because of its tedium and difficulty
2. Anyone using paper for periodontal charting
3. Anyone whose patients present with recession or pockets and a change of their calculated (clinical) attachment level (gingival margin + pocket depth) that should be noted in the record. Charting the position of the gingival margin level with respect to the CEJ and the pocket depth and adding their values gives the calculated (clinical) attachment level (CAL). The CAL monitored over time for progression or disease alerts to chronic progressive periodontitis . (Pocket depth management alone is not sufficient.) If your current system does not easily show changes in the CAL then you should consider using ePerioCare.
4. Anyone whose hygienists hate periodontal charting because their current system is slow and difficult to use
5. Anyone who recognizes there must be a better way to follow patients with periodontal disease and observe trends that promote better management
6. Anyone who wants to increase production

How can I chart a periodontium in 30 seconds?

ePerioCare has a mass charting feature ideal for an initial assessment based on a rapid but strategic evaluation. Mass chart gingival margin, pocket depth, plaque, bleeding, calculus and suppuration. Never again worry about not having a periodontal record on your patient.

How can ePerioCare increase my production?

Knowing the precise change in the periodontal status over time makes it easy to recommend necessary periodontal care. Indications for surgery are more easily identified.

What else does ePerioCare do?

Much, much more, including single-pass dual-entry gingival margin and pocket depth charting, options for presenting attachment level issues, options for viewing pocket depth as a line or bar, options for color changes according to preferences, showing the correct relationship of the gingival margin to the pocket depth, additional reports.

Who is ePerioCare for?

All practices with high-speed Internet access – paper or chartless, general or specialty, mature or new.

How do I learn to use ePerioCare?

Surprisingly easily. Because of web-based conventions, it is intuitive to learn. We teach you using videos and text. Plus we answer help requests.

A SOLUTION TO A PROBLEM

THE PROBLEM:

Charting is slow, laborious, clunky and serves only one function: to record existing findings.

eTreatmentPlanner

1. Faster and easier to use than any other charting program
2. Adds stunning new functionality that transforms charting into a powerful comprehensive treatment planner.

WHAT SPECIFICALLY DOES eTREATMENTPLANNER DO?

1. Simplifies and speeds up charting anomalies and existing restorations
2. Allows charting of 19 different anomalies and restorations
3. Reads your mind. No, not really. But after "learning" your treatment preferences, eTreatmentPlanner will generate a proposed treatment plan for you that accounts for existing restoration and your preferences – all in a matter of seconds. And with the appropriate ADA codes.
4. Creates real treatment plans with three phases (it creates invoices, too)
1. Pre-active care instructions (samples)
1. consults
2. preventive product initiation
3. pre-medications
4. consent forms signed
5. financial arrangements completed
6. pre-op instructions
2. Active Care (samples)
1. surgery, restorative, prosthetics, etc.
3. After care(samples)
1. recall
2. post-operative compliance instructions

Your preference choices include

1. Solutions, such as
1. higher-producing conservative restorations $$
2. implant planning (makes it easy!)
1. Implant prosthetics
1. hybrids, fixed, removable
2. plans for abutments
2. Veneer cases
3. Conventional prosthetics (eTreatmentPlanner plans the case based on your choice of prosthetics)
4. Full-mouth crown rehabilitations
1. plans for buildups
2. changes in vertical dimensions
3. bruxism guards
5. Plans for preventive dentistry
6. Automated ADA recommendations for sealants
7. Preventive products
8. Content-sensitive presentation of ADA codes when creating plan

But, wait, there's more! You can

1. place picture images and radiographs onto your treatment plans
2. write text into your plans

How can eTreatment Planner increase your productivity?

1. By ensuring you always recommend comprehensive care
2. By saving you time

Spend your time diagnosing – not treatment planning. The variability is in patient presentation – not in your choice of restoration or rehabilitation. Your treatment preferences are constant. But patients are always different. And you can increase your productivity with higher tier restorations as indicated and choosing sophisticated prosthetic solutions (particularly implants) that can be challenging to organize into a plan. eTreatmentPlanner does it for you.

How can eTreatmentPlanner know my treatment preferences and apply them?

It's not magic. But it is amazing. You choose them as part of your account setup. eTreatmentPlanner analyzes existing teeth and pathology to suggest treatment (based on your preferences) and presents it to you organized numerically, by quadrant, or by discipline – as you choose..

What if I want to change the restoration or treatment?

It's easy. When creating a plan you can change any procedure.

Why would I want my treatment planning done automatically?

1. To save you time.
2. To ensure that your best preferences are always presented.

No matter the time of day or how you are feeling or how productive you are. . . the standard is set for your practice. No longer do you have to make repetitive decisions about what kinds of restorations you want to present as first choice. No longer must you set aside time to create options for implants or prosthetics. eTreatmentPlanner does it for you. And work can be completely delegated after your personal consultation with your patient.

Who is eTreatment Planner for?

All practices with high-speed Internet access – paper or chartless, general or specialty, mature or new.

How do I learn to use eTreatment Planner?

Very easily. We teach you using videos and text. Plus we answer help requests. Most offices begin using it the same day they create an account.
