Our practice has just started to use Silver Diamine Fluoride. Is there a CDT code for this? I have researched it and cannot find anything. Would we use D1208 or D1206 if not? Is it considered a fluoride application or a fluoride varnish?

A patient was seen and the doctor gave the Nitrous Oxide D9230 and also was able to give the a local anesthetic, but then the patient became uncooperative. The patient was then referred to a specialist. Can you bill for the D9230 alone where it was given and the procedure was attempted?

1. When billing or code 00170, insurance is wanting an appropriate modifier. I am a dental office that does oral surgery and we use conscious sedation (D9241 and D9242). What modifier do we need to be using? Our dentist is not an oral surgeon, but a sedation dentist that does oral surgery procedures. He has an RN that works with him during sedation procedures. 2. Is code 41899 still the appropriate medical procedure code to be using for extractions in the year 2015? Thanks
