Reading your chart
Teeth are numbered 1 to 32, starting at your upper right wisdom tooth and ending at your lower right one. The marks follow one rule: blue is done, rose is planned.
An empty tooth
Checked, and nothing to do.
A blue square
A filling you already have. Blue always means work done before, here or elsewhere.
A blue outline
A crown you already have.
A rose square
A filling we plan to do. Rose always means planned.
A dashed ring
Something small to look at again next time, such as early wear or a shallow stain.
A cross
No tooth: never grown, or taken out.
