Provisional restoration of tooth, per tooth
Last Updated: January 1Lecturer in Updent.
Overview
A provisional restoration of a tooth is intended to provide temporary functionality until a definitive restoration is made or the tooth is removed. This code is used only when the temporary restoration is not part of the ongoing treatment. It should not be used for temporary sealing of an endodontic cavity during endodontic treatment or for temporary restoration while an indirect restoration is being fabricated.
