Welcome to the Dentistry Clinical Reference Group space 

The dentistry clinical reference group is a derivative of the former dentistry special interest group and is, at this time, serving as the primary source of clinical information and recommendations for dentistry into SNOMED.  Historically, the group has served for all of dentistry and continues to do so if and until there is a desire or need of more specific content recommendation and evalution, likely along the lines of recognized dental specialties.

Members of the Clinical Resource Group represent the payer community in the United States of America, dental associations throughout the western world, general dentists, academicians and periodic input from specialty organizations.  The Dental CRG encourages any interested parties to begin participation in the dentistry group.  Ideas, expert knowledge, and skill sets from all areas of dental practice and supporting the entire dental delivery system is sought out and encouraged.  Increased involvement of member countries not currently involved would be very helpful to increase international understanding and utility.

The CRG is currently involved in developing some key reference sets to assist in developing visualizations and for interoperability.  Additionally, the group feels a strong need to evaluate the current available dental terms and work to make them more accurate, with proper structure to most effectively work within the SNOMED hierarchies.
