The navigation controls

To speed up the entry of perio exam data, a script automatically advances from site-to-site and tooth-to-tooth. Since different care providers may chart differently, you can select from six pre-defined movement “scripts.” These scripts indicate to which measurements will be input (PD, GM, CAL, and so on) and in what order. Similarly, the script indicates what tooth number to advance to next.

The navigation controls work in conjunction with the script settings. The tooth in the script that was last worked on is listed in the Script box.
