Dentists use a method known as dental notation, also known as the ANSI/ADA/ISO Tooth Numbering System, to represent teeth when documenting or discussing them. It is a method of representing and linking the presence and arrangement of teeth in a dentition graphically.

The three most used dental notations are the Palmer notation technique, the universal numbering system, and the FDI global dental federation notation (ANSI/ADA/ISO Tooth Numbering System).
