Could you please give me the most accurate CPT code for the dental code D0350? Also, I have a code of D8040, which I need to convert.

Thanks!

Hi Guest!

D0350 - 2D oral/facial photographic image obtained intra-orally or extra-orally
D8040 - Limited orthodontic treatment of the adult dentition

The codes listed above do not have direct crosscodes we are aware of, so you can either bill the "D" code on the medical claim (many insurers these days will process "D" codes when they are medically necessary services), or you can use the CPT codes below and include a narrative report describing the procedure:
41899 - Unlisted procedure, dentoalveolar structures
99070 - Supplies and materials (except spectacles), provided by the physician or other qualified health care professional over and above those usually included with the office visit or other services rendered (list drugs, trays, supplies, or materials provided)

Hope this helps!
