Routine cleaning? Drill and fill? Root canal? Extraction?
Just curious.

Ugh, I was writing down all the cleanings to report on my next medical!
I have had MAJOR dental work done over the years. Too much to list here...
I report everything except routine cleanings. The Feds don't care, but I know I'm covered.
That sounds about right...oral surgery under anesthesia.
Sounds reasonable. But what about surgery under local anesthetic?
Serious question. Not trying to find a way to evade, just want to be covered in case.
Even if you do report cleaning you only need to report the last one and put "previous visits" or something like that. It's the same with any other doctor you visit repeatedly for the same condition or reason.Ugh, I was writing down all the cleanings to report on my next medical!
Well, the instructions say that routine is not reportable. I would say when surgery is done, it's no longer routine, but that's just my interpretation.
It's routine for the dentist, so I wouldn't worry about it.

Well, I am a dentist and it is all routine to me, but not necessarily to the patient. The same thing could be said for any other type of surgery. Things change when you open a surgical plane.
