ANSI/NIST-ITL 1-2011 - UPDATE 2013 DRAFT VERSIONwith fewer nodes may be entered, such as 9.3.2.5, which correspondsto present – restored. If available information is more detailed, a codewith more nodes should be entered, such as 9.3.2.5.1.3, whichindicates present – restored; surfaces restored; distal. The listing of areference code indicates the presence of the characteristic.TARC is a Unicode information item. Several values can be enteredfor the same tooth. In XML, each codes is listed separately. Thecoding is order independent, so a code of 9.3.2.5.1.3 (Distal) followedby 9.3.2.5.1.2 (Occlusal) is treated identically to an entry of 9.3.2.5.1.2(Occlusal) followed by a code of 9.3.2.5.1.3 (Distal). If the originalsystem coding is very detailed but the transmitting system coding is ata summary (represented by codes with fewer nodes) level the mappingis straightforward. However, if the converse is true, care must be takennot to introduce ‘false’ information in the mapping of codes. Using theexample for Figure 17: Simulated Restorations in Tooth 36 :Plass: Three subfields describe the tooth.In the first subfield, for the first condition (restoration 1)(amf O)TARC = 9.3.2.5.1.2, 9.3.2.5.4.1(present-restored, occlusal location)(present-restored, amalgam material)In the second subfield, for the second condition (restoration2) (cef DO)TARC = 9.3.2.5.1.3, 9.3.2.5.1.2, 9.3.2.5.4.2(present-restored, distal location)(present-restored, occlusive location)(present-restored, composite/acrylic material)In the third subfield, for the third condition (restoration 3)(tif O)TARC = 9.3.2.5.1.2, 9.3.2.5.4.9UDIM: TOET = O mAC(present-restored, occlusal location)(present-restored, other – by report) Note: ‘Byreport’ indicates that TADT should explain that9.3.2.5.4.9 here represents tooth colored filling.9.3.2.5.4.9 is used since the composition of therestorative material is not specified in the code.290
