Implant sizes on the plan
Choose the implant system and size for each patient on the treatment plan, and see what was taken from stock when the treatment is completed.
When a treatment on a treatment plan has a procedure kit, the treatment lists its Materials. For an implant, an abutment or anything else whose size is chosen per case, the dentist picks the exact product for this patient. Smileline never picks a size for you.
Materials show wherever the Shop is open to your practice, in the UK (except Northern Ireland) and the US, for members who can see both the Shop and treatments.
What the plan shows
- A Size not chosen chip on each treatment that still needs a size.
- A line at the top of the plan for each item still waiting across the treatments yet to be done, such as Implants: 4 planned, sizes not chosen.
- In the treatment, opened in place on the plan, the Materials section: each item with how many the treatment uses, Optional where it applies, its status and the product chosen.
Choosing a size doesn't change the plan itself. A plan that has been presented or accepted stays exactly as the patient saw it.
Choose a size
Open the treatment on the plan and find Materials.
Click Choose size beside the item.
The list shows the products of that type sold in your country, grouped by brand, then by product (the system), then by size. Members who can see stock also see how many of each are in stock at the treatment's site. Type in Search products and sizes… to narrow it.
Pick the product. The item shows Size chosen and the product's name.
To pick another product, click Change size. If the Shop sells nothing of that type in your country yet, the list says so.
Anyone who can plan treatment chooses sizes before the treatment is completed; afterwards, it takes someone who can record treatment. A voided treatment's materials can't be changed.
When the treatment is completed
Completing a treatment takes each implanted item whose size was chosen from the stock at the treatment's site: Smileline finds the site's stock item linked to that product in Inventory. Other items in the kit, such as sutures, are never taken automatically. The stock take never holds up or blocks the completion, and it never takes more than is on hand.
Each implanted item then shows what happened:
| Status | What it means |
|---|---|
| Taken from stock | The chosen product was taken from the site's stock. |
| Stock was at zero | The stock item showed none left, so nothing was taken. |
| Not in the stock list | The site has no stock item linked to that product. |
| Not a whole pack | The quantity isn't a whole number of the stock item's units, for example a box of 5 membranes counted in boxes. |
| Stock not adjusted | A size was chosen but nothing has been taken yet. Click Take from stock. |
| Size not recorded: stock not adjusted | No size was chosen. Choose it, then click Take from stock. |
Take from stock needs permission to record treatment and to record stock. It never takes the same item twice, so it is safe to click again after a dropped connection.
Once an item has been taken from stock, its size can't be changed. If the wrong product was taken, put the stock right with a Count. Correcting or re-pricing a completed treatment keeps its stock take, and voiding it doesn't give the stock back: count it instead.
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.
Auto-order
Let the Shop reorder chosen stock items for each site once a day, within a monthly budget you set, with larger orders waiting for a buyer to approve them.
