Hi guest!

D0340 - 2D cephalometric radiographic image – acquisition, measurement and analysis
can be crosscoded to:
70350 - Cephalogram, orthodontic
70250 x-ray lateral skull

D0470 - diagnostic casts
can be crosscoded to:
99070 - special supplies & materials
A4580 - cast supplies (e.g. plaster)

D0350
- 2D oral/facial photographic image obtained intra-orally or extra-orally
can be crosscoded to:
99070 - special supplies & materials

D8090 - comprehensive orthodontic treatment of the adult dentition
can be crosscoded to:
21110 - Application of interdental fixation device for conditions other than fracture or dislocation, include removal

**be sure to include a narrative report that describes the procedures and/or supplies, as 99070 is a very miscellaneous code and when using 21110 for orthodontic treatments, a clear description of how it is being used should be supplied so the insurers does not misconstrue that is it a surgical treatment.
