Dental Billing FAQs

Can dental procedures be billed to medical insurance?

Some can, such as treatment of jaw injuries, removal of impacted teeth in certain cases, biopsies, TMJ treatment and oral appliances for sleep apnea. The claim needs CPT and ICD-10 codes and documentation of medical necessity.

What attachments do dental insurers usually need?

Common requests include x-rays, periodontal charting, photos and a short narrative, especially for crowns, implants and gum treatment.

How do you handle patients with two dental plans?

We follow coordination of benefits rules to bill the primary plan first and then the secondary plan for the remaining balance.

Do you verify dental benefits before treatment?

Yes. We check coverage, frequency limits, waiting periods and remaining yearly maximums so patients know their cost before treatment. See all the specialties we bill for.
