Private answer Extraoral images are captured when the image receptor is placed outside the patient’s mouth, such as a CBCT or panoramic X-ray. For D0251, you will bill one unit since it is categorized as an image of the entire posterior dental region. This code can be billed for both primary and permanent teeth. Marked as spam
