Procedure kits
Tell the Shop what each treatment uses per case, so Needed soon can order it in time, while implant sizes stay for the dentist to choose on the plan.
A kit lists the materials one treatment uses each time it is done: the sutures, drapes and irrigation set for an implant placement, or the gel and tray blanks for a whitening. The Shop counts each kit against your booked and planned treatments to fill Needed soon on the Shop home, so what a treatment needs arrives before the appointment.
Kits work wherever the Shop is open to your practice, in the UK (except Northern Ireland) and the US. Owners and managers set them up.
A kit lists case-specific materials only. Everyday consumables such as gloves and bibs follow their min level in Inventory, so a kit never counts them twice.
Smileline's default kits
Until you change it, a treatment code uses Smileline's default kit, if it has one. These codes are among Smileline's standard treatment codes in both countries:
| Treatment code | Default kit |
|---|---|
IMPLANT (implant placement) | 1 implant, size chosen per case; bone graft material and a membrane, 1 each, optional, size chosen per case; resorbable sutures, sterile drapes and a sterile irrigation set, 1 each |
IMPLANT-CR (implant crown) | 1 abutment, size chosen per case |
EXT-S (surgical extraction) | Resorbable sutures, 1 |
WHITEN (whitening) | Whitening gel, 1; whitening tray blanks, 2 |
Every other treatment code has no kit until you add one.
Open a kit
Click Settings in the Shop's header and choose the Kits tab
(/shop/settings/kits).
Every active treatment code is listed with its code, its name and where its kit comes from: Your kit, Smileline default or No kit. Codes with a kit come first. Type in Search treatments… to find one by code or name.
Click a treatment to open its kit beside the list.
Change a kit
Each item in the kit has these settings:
- Per treatment: how many one treatment uses. Decimals are allowed, and it must be more than 0.
- Size chosen per case: the dentist picks the exact product for each patient on the treatment plan. See Implant sizes on the plan.
- Optional, for an item whose size is chosen per case: one that a treatment only sometimes uses, such as a membrane. An optional item left unchosen on the plan never shows Size not chosen.
To add to the kit:
- Add an item type opens Smileline's catalogue of equipment and supplies, with Common items first. Pick what the treatment uses. Item types the Shop doesn't sell aren't listed.
- Add a product is for one product the treatment uses every time. Type at least two letters or scan its barcode. A product with several options says Several options: add it by item type, and an implanted product says Size chosen for each patient; add either of those by item type instead.
Click × beside an item to remove it. Click Save to keep your changes, or Cancel to go back to the kit as last saved.
The first save copies the default into a kit of your own, which then shows Your kit. Sizes already chosen on treatment plans keep their place.
Implants, abutments, bone graft material and membranes are marked Implanted. Their size is always chosen for each patient on the plan, never in the kit, so their Size chosen per case switch can't be turned off.
