We verify periodontal insurance benefits upfront, reviewing frequency limits, surgical coverage, deductibles, annual maximums, and waiting periods. Our proactive approach improves case acceptance and ensures accurate patient expectations.
Periodontal surgery often requires pre-authorization. TransDental handles the entire process, submitting periodontal charting, radiographs, and detailed medical-necessity narratives. Our thorough documentation boosts approval rates.
Periodontal care demands precise CDT coding for non-surgical, surgical, regenerative, and maintenance procedures. Our certified coders correctly code SRP, maintenance, gingivectomy, regeneration, bone grafts, and implants.
Insurance carriers require detailed periodontal charting to prove medical necessity. We ensure proper documentation, probing depths, bleeding, mobility, and furcation and provide any additional clinical details requested to support treatment.
The most scrutinized area is differentiating periodontal maintenance from prophylaxis. We ensure documentation clearly references previous active periodontal therapy and current periodontal status requiring specialized care.
Insurers typically limit scaling and root planing to once per quadrant within set timeframes. We track these limits, submit claims promptly, and appeal when additional treatment is medically necessary, helping justify retreatment when required.
Periodontal claims are electronically submitted within 24 to 48 hours of receiving clinical documentation. This reduces the time between treatment and payment. We maintain follow up on pending claims contacting insurance to expedite processing.
The denial rates for periodontal claims are higher than dentistry claims due to increased scrutiny of medical necessity. We investigate every rejection, gather clinical documentation where needed and prepare compelling appeals.
For patients requiring extensive treatment without insurance coverage, we establish payment plans and manage collections professionally. This approach balances collection practices while maintaining positive patient relationships.
Our team at TransDental provides detailed monthly reports showing production and collections by procedure category, insurance reimbursement rates by carrier, accounts receivable aging, and treatment acceptance rates.

Periodontal billing requires specialized expertise in precise procedure code selection and comprehensive documentation that general dental billing doesn’t encounter. The complexity lies in distinguishing between similar procedures (periodontal maintenance versus prophylaxis, localized versus generalized scaling), navigating strict frequency limitations imposed by insurance carriers, documenting periodontal charting to justify medical necessity, and managing pre-authorizations for surgical procedures like osseous surgery, guided tissue regeneration, and bone grafting.
TransDental tracks frequency limitations for each patient across multiple insurance carriers, monitoring timeframes for scaling and root planing, periodontal maintenance, comprehensive evaluations, and surgical procedures. Our specialists understand payer-specific policies, submit supporting documentation when procedures fall outside standard frequencies, and appeal denials with comprehensive clinical justification including periodontal charting, radiographs, and treatment narratives to maximize reimbursement while maintaining compliance.
TransDental offers comprehensive periodontal billing including insurance verification and benefits coordination, accurate CDT code selection for non-surgical and surgical procedures, periodontal charting documentation and medical necessity support, frequency limitation tracking and management, pre-authorization handling for surgical treatments, regenerative procedure and implant-related billing, aggressive accounts receivable follow-up, denied claim appeals with clinical documentation, and detailed financial reporting with practice analytics for both in-office procedures and hospital-based surgeries.
