## Overview

Dental Lab Pro is a desktop dental-laboratory management application. Staff sign in, select or manage an account, create doctor-linked patient jobs with treatment items and pricing, track and edit orders, then issue bills of supply and record payments; reports summarize activity for viewing, export, and printing. Settings cover account preferences and database backup/restore. SQLite is split between a master user database and per-account databases. The tree and sampled code support these responsibilities, but not every screen-to-screen transition or DAO call is visible, so uncertain wiring is omitted.
