Class B Prosthodontic Services Notes:
  • For reporting and benefit purposes, the completion date for crowns and fixed partial dentures is the cementation date. The completion date is the insertion date for removable prosthodontic appliances. For immediate dentures, the dentist who fabricated the denture may be reimbursed for the service after insertion by another dentist (e.g., oral surgeon).
     
  • Tissue conditioning is considered inclusive when performed on the same day as the delivery of a denture or a reline/rebase.
