I have a pt he had 3 rct treated front teeth that broke off so I ground down the small parts of his tooth remaining to gum line and making a partial over it. Do I charge his insurance for grinding his teeth down .If so what code can I use? Please help ! We have a code called: Re-contouring for functional reasons. It goes by unit of time. Each unit of time is 10 minutes. You might have something similar? It is usually fond in the preventive section.
