Content

  • Type based on xsd:token
    • Valid valueDescription
      0Specified by tooth number (e.g., FastID, PLASS). For systems such as WinID and UDIM, which internally list the tooth number with a permanent tooth number but use a deciduous indicator, those two pieces of information shall be combined together to assign the tooth number according to ANSI/ADA Standard No. 3950 prior to inclusion in this record.
      1Unable to determine if the teeth are permanent or deciduous at the tooth level but the system does allow a marker to indicate that deciduous teeth are present in the dentition (e.g., NCIC). The permanent tooth number shall be used.
      2Coding system incapable of distinguishing deciduous from permanent teeth (e.g., NamUs). The permanent tooth number shall be used.
      3Unknown whether the coding is capable of indicating deciduous and permanent teeth and / or whether the coding was performed using that capability. The permanent tooth number shall be used.
