[Basic information system of a stomatological department]
Abstract:
The authors presents an account on a computer system by means of which it is possible to follow up therapeutic and preventive activities of a stomatological department. They describe the "Basic Information System" which has the following aim: to create a qualitatively new background for the evaluation and management of dental therapeutic and preventive care, to support dispensary care and to reduce administrative work to a minimum. An integral part of the information system is also an innovated "Daily working records of doctors".

Health Information Technology and Healthcare Information System
Health Information Technology, commonly called HIT, integrates advanced information systems and technology in healthcare settings. Its primary functions include:
Oral Cavity
Teeth: The teeth are the hardest structures in our bodies. Humans have two sets of teeth throughout their lifetime: deciduous (baby) teeth and permanent teeth. Each tooth consists of several parts: the crown (visible part), the root (embedded in the jaw), enamel (hard outer...

In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin and...
Tooth Anatomy
