Description
Qualify a supplied tooth-mobility code by its explicit classification source.
Periodontal charts distinguish planned, excluded and unmeasured sites, anatomical ordering, reference landmarks and sign conventions. An unassessed site differs from a recorded negative finding, and an apical-positive coordinate needs its stated reference. These local records and corrections do not produce an examination, disease grade or treatment recommendation.
Qualify a supplied tooth-mobility code by its explicit classification source.
When to use this tool
Use Periodontal Mobility Source Key when you already have toothCode, recordedMobilityCode, classificationSource and need to qualify a supplied tooth-mobility code by its explicit classification source.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter toothCode, recordedMobilityCode, classificationSource. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read token. Use the output convention below.
Enter toothCode, recordedMobilityCode, classificationSource using the field constraints below. Encode these values, in exactly that order, as a JSON array and return the serialized array as text in token. String values are preserved without trimming or external terminology lookup.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| toothCode | Tooth Code | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| recordedMobilityCode | Recorded Mobility Code | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| classificationSource | Classification Source | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| token | Token | Required. Text; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |

"input": {

"output": {

}
} Limitations and assumptions
- The result records supplied values without assessing mobility. Sources and asserted relationships are not independently authenticated.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Review the source chart's site order, landmark and sign convention before combining measurements. Apply the full documented examination and scoring method for an assessment; a site label, correction delta or recorded bleeding flag is only one record component.
