Caries Risk Assessment: Treatments Performed

Note that the Treatments Performed screen shows first in sequence only for patients with at least one prior PreViser Risk Assessment in their records. If this is the patient’s first PreViser Risk Assessment, the Exam Date screen is shown first, instead of this one.

There are four main headings under which are numerous fields where you will input the relevant numerical response for each. If a specific treatment has not been performed since the last Risk Assessment, either enter a ‘zero’ or leave the field blank. These fields include:
  • Preventive Treatment
  • Related to Teeth
  • Related to Periodontium
  • Related to Tooth Replacement

Note regarding treatments performed on the same date of the new Risk Assessment: Accuracy and consistency of reporting is vital. If you are generating a risk and disease report at the start of the current appointment but have not begun any treatments planned for that appointment, you should not indicate that those treatments have already been performed in your data entry. It is possible that the intended treatments are not in fact performed on that date. Therefore, to avoid inaccurate data on the reports, you should include all treatment completed since the last risk assessment and prior to the current risk assessment; only report treatment after it has been completed.

Note: For specific details and definitions of each term on this screen, please refer to the Caries Risk Assessment Definitions of Terms in the Appendix in this Help guide.

To move on from this page:

Clicking the Previous button saves the field values you have entered, and loads the Patient Details screen.

Clicking the Next button saves all the values you have entered for this Risk Assessment, and loads the Exam Date screen.

Note: You can leave some required fields blank at this point if you will be saving the Risk Assessment as Unfinished and completing it later. The system allows you to move among the various components of a Risk Assessment without forcing you to complete all required fields. The system will check and enforce that all required values have been entered when you click “Finish” on the final Clinical Information screen at the point where data is transmitted to PreViser for calculation.
