Procedure known as 'scaling and root planing', for <em>four or more teeth</em> in a quadrant of the mouth. Scaling and root planing is performed on patients with periodontal attachment loss, inflammation, subgingival calculus deposits, and diseased root cementum. It is considered active therapy, as opposed to being preventive in nature.
A type of dental restoration known as a crown, which is made in a laboratory from a <em>high noble</em> metal reinforcing core (coping), and which has tooth colored porcelain baked over it to mask the metal and make it more esthetic.
A type of dental restoration known as a direct veneer (or laminate), composed of tooth colored composite resin material, which is <em>directly applied</em> by a dentist to cover the visible (labial) surfaces of affected teeth. No laboratory processes are involved, and the procedure is generally completed in one session. Compare with D2961 and D2962.
