I agree with you. Dental and oral health are a very important part of
medicine, so we must articulate it. It's a pity that schools of
Medicine and Dentistry have always worked as separate entities :/

Thanks a lot for the link on Open Molar ! We've had several suggestions
since the beginning of the project to include a dentistry module. For
some reason,  there has not been enough momentum for it until now.

I agree with you, and we have it on the queue of to-do, especially the
odontogram. I believe that having general canvas to edit the
odontogram (and other charts) would definitely make a huge advance.

Yes, we need dentists in the project, so we will be very happy to count
on you help and learn from you ! Any suggestion is most welcome.

Best
Luis
