tooth: Dental Public Health Indices and Odontogram Visualizations

Computes dental caries indices (DMFT, DMFS, dmft, dmfs) from surface-level clinical examination data and produces odontogram heatmap visualizations of per-tooth-surface outcomes. Supports primary and permanent dentition with configurable teeth per quadrant (5 to 8), separate root and coronal caries tallying, long and wide input formats, stratified output, and FDI/Universal/quadrant tooth numbering conversion.
