I have a questions on code D1203 Topical Fluriode- child vs code D1206 – Topical Fluriode Varnish.
Could you please tell me what is the difference between this two?
Thank you
Paula
The difference is quite simple CDT code D1203 Topical Fluroide is used for children who are not at a high risk of developing caries. While CDT code D1206 was created for patients who are at moderate to high risk of developing caries due to systemic disease, medications they are taking or other conditions. You should note CDT code D1206 should NOT be used for desensitization.
