An odontogram (also called a dental chart) is a visual diagram of all 32 adult teeth — or 20 deciduous teeth — used to record conditions and treatments. In digital dental practice management software, the odontogram is interactive: dentists click on individual teeth to mark cavities, fillings, crowns, root canals, implants, and missing teeth, with each entry timestamped and linked to billing.
This glossary entry explains Odontogram for dental clinic owners, office managers, and anyone evaluating dental practice management software in 2026.
