 - Prosthesis uses `WizardStepper` (Treatment → Lab) with Back/Next. Lab dispatch keeps comments.

+- Detail type may differ from appointment purpose. Purpose seeds the first line of an empty **appointment** draft (first open, and **Add detail** when the plan is `[]`). Later **Add detail** starts with an empty type. Unscheduled / New treatment still seeds a blank first line.
 - Switching `activeDetailId` resets to the treatment form, unless `pendingEntryStepRef` is set to `lab` first (lab shipments rail / “Go to dispatch” / load-with-focus).
 - Live draft is **not** duplicated in the left rail preview; preview is for history browse only.

 **Treatment lab rules (quick ref):**
 - Lab-dependent details (e.g. prosthesis) **without teeth** can save but **cannot ship** — same inline amber banner (`labShipmentBlockedBody`) on Treatment **and** Lab steps; toast on dispatch add.
 - New prosthesis dispatch lines start **empty** (no default lab, no apply-all / per-tooth prosthesis type), even for siblings in the same plan. Recent-lab chips are the last **3 sent** destinations — pick is explicit, never auto-selected.

 - **History filters** are client-side only (`treatmentHistoryFilters.ts`): “Not shipped to lab” + single date on already-fetched patient history; includes live current draft when filtering.
 - **Lab shipments rail**: unified list with scope toggle **This patient** vs **All updates** (unread across org for **this clinician's cases only**, includes patient name). Opening a case from the rail jumps to the **Lab** send sheet.
 - **Unread semantics**: Treatment tab badge = count of unread cases **for the user's own treatment plans** (per-case read cursor) and clears when a case is opened/marked read (not on tab visit).
