I am being prepped for 2 implants on my left side. I have no capability to chew on that side as I have lost 2 teeth on top and 1 tooth on the bottom and no teeth meet for chewing purposes. My dental office did a CT scan of both jaws but say they do not have the capability to bill medical procedures, yet they perform the CT scan in office. I am looking for a CPT code and diagnosis code as my insurance carrier said I could send them a bill with a filled out claim form. This is very frustrating because the dental office did not inform me of this issue.
