Today we began treatment on a patient to replace PFM crown with new one. After the old crown and decay was removed (75mins into the appointment) it became clear that the tooth was non restorable and was referred for extraction. What code can we bill for the time spent in the chair?

    D2999- Tooth#, explain your scenario in the narrative and add your fee per unit of chair time. Include preop xray and copy of referral
