PATCH
Changes the chart’s dentition mode. The change is refused with 409 when any registered finding would become invalid under the new mode (e.g. deciduous-tooth findings when switching to adult): the mode is a setup decision, and this endpoint never deletes clinical or billed data — remove the blocking findings first (the details.blockingFindings array lists them). A change that destroys nothing succeeds with removedFindings: []. Entering mixed mode for the first time seeds the default temporary-tooth positions. The per-tooth dentition toggle (PATCH .../odontogram/teeth/{position}/dentition) keeps its cascading delete: an exfoliated baby tooth is a real clinical event, and only that tooth’s findings are affected. Requires the odontogram feature flag and EMR write access.
