Hi Guest!

Great question! Most offices will bill out follow up adjustment appointment using the E&M coding set for established patients (CPT codes 99211 through 99215). For more information on these codes and the required documentation - here is a link to our Tip of the Week that goes into more detail!:
https://www.dentalwriter.com/forum/default.aspx?g=posts&t=308

Some offices will instead choose to use code 97762 to code these follow up visits, which stands for: Checkout for orthotic/prosthetic use, established patient, each 15 minutes
(so you would bill 1 unit of this code for each 15 minute spent with the patient)

If you do any imaging (i.e. pano) - there are CPT codes to use for those services as well.

Hope this helps! Please feel free to contact us with any further questions!

I am trying to bill out for TMJ appliance adjustments and follow up appointments. How would I bill this medically?
