  • Include these codes as defined in https://fhir.cognovis.de/dental-core/CodeSystem/dental-chart-value version 📦0.9.2
    CodeDisplayDefinition
    tooth-presentTooth presentA permanent tooth is present at the tooth position.
    primary-tooth-presentPrimary tooth presentA primary (deciduous) tooth is present at the tooth position.
    implant-in-tooth-positionImplant in tooth positionA dental implant occupies the tooth position in place of a natural tooth.
    tooth-retained-under-gingivaTooth retained under gingivaA tooth is present at the tooth position but remains covered by gingiva, such as an impacted or submerged tooth; a tooth that has not yet reached its expected eruption is recorded as tooth not erupted.
    tooth-absent-extractedTooth absent after extractionThe tooth is absent from the tooth position because it was extracted.
    tooth-not-eruptedTooth not eruptedNo tooth is visible at the tooth position because the tooth has not yet erupted at the patient's developmental stage; the position is not recorded as missing.
    tooth-absentTooth absentNo tooth is present at the tooth position, without an asserted cause.

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

Level A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies
System The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere)
Code The code (used as the code in the resource instance)
Display The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application
Definition An explanation of the meaning of the concept
Comments Additional notes about how to use the code
