SNODENT is a standardized code set for the representation of clinical oral health descriptions that is interoperable across healthcare systems and with electronic health record systems. It provides a clinical terminology that enables the capture and analysis of detailed oral health data, including oral anatomical sites, oral health conditions, findings and other clinical concepts unique to dentistry. It is revised annually to maintain currency with dental terminology. Note: Sign up for a license with no cost.
