ABSTRACT

Oral-health clinical records in a computorized format are increasingly being adopted in dental schools with the objective to improve office efficiency and operations, diagnosis and treatment and patient communication and perception. However, the computer pacient records only cover the information of paperbased records partially (Schleyer et al. 2007 &Acharya et al. 2010). According to Thyvalikakath (2008) the quality of e-records is low, with 28% of fields fail to be filled and 30% are filled with errors.
