Dental E/M codes are a set of codes used by dentists to bill for services that are not directly related to the teeth or gums. These codes are used to bill for services such as examinations, consultations, and other diagnostic procedures.
Dental E/M codes are important because they allow dentists to be reimbursed for the services they provide. Without these codes, dentists would not be able to bill for many of the services that they provide, which would make it difficult for them to stay in business.
