  My husband went in for an Adult cleaning. He was there for no more than an hour total, including check-in time and filling out paper work. We were billed for a Debridement. Ive spoken to several Dentists in the area and was advised adult cleaning takes about 30-45mins, whereas a debridement takes atleast 45-60mins and that its common knowledge among anyone in the dental field that there are a lot of insurance companies that do not cover the debridement but fully cover the adult cleaning: Attempted to resolve the issue with the office and was told the dentist billed for the procedure completed. Which is a lie. In searching the internet I'm finding that unfortunately there are some scammer dentists that will bill for the debridement because most people don't question it. If its truly something that needs done then we should be given the option as to whether or not its something we'd like to have done right then. D1110-Adult Dental Cleaning – Prophylaxis /Hygiene Therapy: This dental cleaning is for patients with healthy gum tissue. It is defined as “removal of plaque, calculus and stains from the tooth structures” and is intended to help the patient maintain a healthy mouth. Usually the teeth are scaled (remove hard deposits), polished (brush the teeth) to remove soft plaque and stain. This procedure generally takes approximately 30 to 45 minutes. D4355 – Full Mouth Dental Debridement: A full mouth debridement (sometimes called gross scale) is common for patients that have not had their teeth cleaned professionally in a long time. The main purpose of this procedure is to remove as much of the build-up as possible, to allow for a thorough evaluation of the teeth. This is sometimes a two-step dental cleaning. The first being the removal of tartar and the second, a “fine scale” to remove the remaining build-up and polish or a more thorough exam to evaluate for a Scale and Root planning . This procedure takes approximately 45 to 60 minutes.
