What a treatment plan should include

At a minimum: the patient's details and the date, the findings or diagnosis for each tooth, the proposed procedure, the estimated cost, the planned order, and the status of each item. Add the alternatives you discussed and any notes about risks, so the patient can make an informed choice.

Tips for presenting the plan

Number the steps in a sensible order, mark which items are urgent, and give a total with a clear note about what is an estimate. Go through the plan with the patient and keep a signed copy. Check which consent and record-keeping rules apply where you practice.

The patient's name and the date are filled in
Every tooth uses one numbering system, for example FDI

Frequently asked questions

Is this treatment plan template free to use?

Yes. Print it or save it as a PDF and adapt it to your clinic's needs.

Do I need patient consent for a treatment plan?

Consent rules differ by country and by procedure. A written plan supports informed consent but does not replace the requirements that apply where you practice, so check your local rules.

Which tooth numbering should I use on the plan?

Use the system your clinic and the colleagues you refer to already use, and apply it consistently. FDI notation is the international standard.
