Patient presented with avulsed tooth #11. Dr. Arndt re-stabilized . I have to send to medical first. I need CPT code and DX code.
We no longer take impressions or diagnostic casts. Is there a CDT code that would cover the intraloral scan with our Itero when we are preparing a treatment/case work up for an Invisalign consult? Can we still bill out D0470 or do we use D0393?
Should we bill 20240 superficial or 20245 deep for biopsy . I feel the codes our providers are selecting is incorrect they are picking 20245 (deep)
The hygienist doesn't want to take all 7 images because patient doesn't have enough teeth to justify taking the full 7 VBWX. Is there a way to bill just four images?
Can a D6080 code be used for locator dentures that can be removed by the patient or only fixed appliances?
Since the root canal was performed & resolved my issue & crown isn’t necessary, would there be a need for “build up” since there will be no crown? Is the only reason for the build up, to support a crown??
e.g. WDS plans will say
Fluoride toothpaste following periodontal procedure 100%. I've spoken to the company and they suggested D0999. The EOB note read: description for this treatment has a valid CDT code and does not match the submitted procedure code. What code would be correct code for Clinpro 5000 dispensed for take home?
