Anyone know the CDT code I'd use for an etched metal (non-provisional)
lingual splint (same technology as Maryland bridge retainers)?  I can
only find perio codes for provisional intracoronal and extracoronal splints.

TIA,
Steve

Use the code for extracoronal splinting.  D4xxx.   Check out Monodont
Tie-Bow splinting when you get the chance.

    Yeah, I don't have the latest CDT coding--I only have CDT-4.  Wouldn't
really expect them to add a code for this at this point.
Did Maris really change his name, or come out as a Martian?
