Hi Courtney, I was wondering if these same codes would work for me if I need full implants due to not having enough teeth to eat properly, have severe tooth decaying, with root canals, pulled teeth, cracked teeth, and painful teeth due to Crohn”s disease, Mixed Connective Tissue Disorder, Psoriatic Arthritis, and Sjogren”s Syndrome? My prosdontist has warned me that trying to treat any of my remaining teeth would cause them to break/crumble because they all look like cottage cheese under x-ray due to all of the dental work I”ve had done to them over the years. My only option is Full implants, we just need to know how to code the necessity and procedures for my medical insurance, who”ve been no help in figuring this out. Anthem has replied saying they won”t know what they can cover until I have the procedure done. Any help would be life saving and changing. Please stay safe, ModelMomCA
