Outcomes data made easy.

Dx Index is a quick and easy method for quantifying patients' oral health. A number scale from 1 to 10 provides an easy-to-understand assessment of the dental health status of either an individual or a large group. During routine oral examinations, areas such as decayed teeth, pocket depth, inflammation and oral hygiene are numbered by level. Reading the lowest number on a chart pertaining to these categories gives a rapid overall score of dental health.
