Pocket Depths

You can chart up to nine measurements at a time

For best results, six - nine measurements at a time are recommended, but not more than that.

Here’s an example of charting normal pocket depths:

“Two, one, two”

“Four, two, three, three, two, three, three two, four”

Here’s a few examples when charting pocket depths greater than nine, say”:

“Five, seven, ten”

“Ten, ten, twelve”

Repeat command can only be used on pocket depth row.

“Three two three repeat five times”

Bola AI’s Voice Perio system is automatically on Pocket Depths

To switch between PD or GM rows, say:

To begin continuous GM charting

“Start recession”

“Start GM”

“Start gingival margin”

To resume pocket depths

“Start pocket depths” “Start PD”

Bola AI can understand and process many different combinations of commands, but they must be formulated in a specific way. However, there is a recommended structure for best results, which is to use following:

  1. PERIO CONDITION

  2. TOOTH NUMBER

  3. POSITION

  4. SURFACE

  5. MEASUREMENT

Bleeding

To mark bleeding, say:

Current tooth (where cursor is positioned)

“Bleeding” (marks central pos.)

“Bleeding mesial” “Bleeding distal”

“Bleeding mesial and distal”

All positions on current tooth

“Bleeding all”

”BOP on all”

Specific tooth on same side as cursor

“Bleeding on mesial of tooth number five”

Specific tooth and position on opposite side of cursor

“Bleeding on distal lingual of tooth number five”

Interproximal Bleeding

“Interproximal bleeding tooth five” Marks mesial and distal of tooth 5

“Interproximal bleeding tooth 5 and 6” marks mesial of tooth five and distal of tooth six

Bleeding on entire sextant

“Bleeding on sextant three”

Bleeding on entire quadrant

“Bleeding quadrant one”

Bleeding on entire mouth

“Bleeding whole mouth”

“Bleeding full mouth”

Gingival Margin/Recession

Continuous Gingival Margin

When charting multiple measurements at a time follow these guidelines.

You can move the cursor to the gingival margin row by saying:

“Start gingival margin” or “Start GM” “Start Recession”

When continuously charting positive GM measurements say:

“zero, one, zero” “one one, one”, “one two one”

Spot Charting Gingival Margin

Gingival Margin/Recession use the key word ”With” when charting a single or specific tooth.

Current tooth (one value marked in the center position)

“Gingival Margin with two”

Current tooth (three values)

“Gingival margin one, two, one”

Specific tooth position but same side as cursor (buccal or lingua)l

“GM on tooth number five with zero, one zero”

Specific tooth position different side than cursor (buccal or lingual)

“Gingival margin tooth number six lingual grade two” (one measurement)

“Recession with two, four, two on tooth 23 lingual” (three measurements)

Negative Recession

NOTE:

Speaking only numbers (e.g., one, two, three) on the GM row will add the value of the pocket depth and recession values and display it on the CAL row. If you say “plus” followed by the numbers (e.g. plus one, plus two…), the CAL row will display a subtraction of the Gingival Margin value from the Pocket Depth value.

Negative values

“Plus two, plus three, plus one.”

Specific tooth and side (single value)

“Gingival margin tooth number six lingual plus two”.

“GM plus two on tooth six”

“Recession plus two on tooth six”

When charting negative GM on multiple measurements, say:

“Plus two, plus three, plus one.”

“Plus three, plus one, plus two”

When charting negative gingival margin on specific tooth on same side buccal or lingual.

When charting negative gingival margin on specific tooth on a different side buccal or lingual

Mixing positive and negative values

“Gingival margin tooth number five with one”. (single measurement)

“Gingival margin tooth number seven lingual plus one, plus two, plus one”. (three measurements)

“GM zero, one, plus two on tooth number four ”

“Gingival margin tooth number seven lingual plus one, plus two, plus one”

Furcation

Furcation records one value per tooth and must include “GRADE”.

Furcation can only be entered on the side and site for the appropriate teeth and surface as displayed in your practice management system: 1- 3, 14-16, 17-19, 30-32. To mark Furcation, say:

Current tooth - buccal

“Furcation grade two”

Current tooth - lingual

“Furcation grade two mesio-lingual or disto-lingual” for maxillary

“Furcation grade two on lingual” on mandible

Mobility

Mobility records one value per tooth and must include “plus” or “class.” Mobility values can be from one to four. To mark mobility, say:

Current tooth

“Mobility plus three”

Specific tooth

“Mobility tooth number five plus one”

"Mobility class two on tooth three"

Suppuration

Suppuration can be marked on three positions and on both surfaces

of the tooth. To mark suppuration, say:

Current tooth

“Suppuration”

Specific tooth and position

“Suppuration mesial”

“Suppuration mesial and distal”

“Suppuration on all”

Specific tooth

“Suppuration on tooth number two lingual”

Specific tooth and side

“Suppuration on the disto-lingual of tooth number two”

Sextant

“Suppuration on sextant one”

Quadrant

“Suppuration on quadrant two”

Whole mouth

“Suppuration on full mouth”

“Suppuration whole mouth”

Controls

To jump to another tooth, Say:

“Jump to tooth number five”

“Go to tooth number five”

To jump to a tooth on a specific side say:

“Jump to tooth number five lingual”

To go back to the previous tooth, say:

“Go back”

“Back”

To remove the last command, say:

“Undo”

You can skip to the next tooth by saying:

“Skip or next”

You can shut off the microphone by saying

“Bola stop”

International Users (outside the US)

For those users who use the international tooth numbering system, you can use the same commands listed in this document but please replace the international format for the tooth number.

e.g.: "Bleeding on tooth twelve" for "Bleeding on tooth two four"
