Why Use This Function:

Dental Billing Settings allow a Dental Practitioner to set up Dental Treatment Menu Links, which are shortcuts in the Treatment Planning Mode connected to specific billing codes.

These links automatically apply billing codes when certain options are selected on a tooth, such as different types of restorations, crowns, replacements, extractions, or missing teeth, ensuring that a detailed Invoice or Estimate is generated for work that has been completed or is required.

Dental Billing Settings are specific to the Dental Entity and will not be visible or applicable in any other entity, providing an efficient, accurate, and compliant way to manage Dental billing within the Practice.

?Please Note: Without these links, the system will not allow billing for the Patient. GoodX will do the linking with the initial install process.
