ICD-9-CM code 521.89

The most appropriate code for the second provider would be D0160

The most appropriate code for the precision attachments would be D5862

Some medical carriers will reimburse for osseous surgery...the correct CPT code to use for this procedure is 41899 as there is no specific code assigned to this procedure. You should note some carriers will ask for the "D" code when submitting for this procedure. You should check your individual carrier guidelines prior to claim submission

The correct ICD-9-CM code is 525.19

12 CEU's are due at the end of each year regardless of when your membership fee's/renewal is due.

Primary DX 935.0, secondary DX E915

There is not an equivalent CPT code for D1110 or D2331 as cleanings and routine fillings are not covered under medical unless it is due to an accident. You would use the "D" code to bill medical if this were the case.
