1 NON-SURGICAL ENDODONTICS UnitedHealthcare Dental Coverage Guideline Guideline Number: DCG Effective Date: January 1, 2018 Table of Contents Page INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE...1 BENEFIT CONSIDERATIONS...1 COVERAGE RATIONALE...1 DEFINITIONS...3 APPLICABLE CODES...4 DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES...5 REFERENCES...5 GUIDELINE HISTORY/REVISION INFORMATION...5 Related Dental Policy Surgical Endodontics INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE This Dental Coverage Guideline provides assistance in interpreting UnitedHealthcare dental benefit plans. When deciding coverage, the member specific benefit plan document must be referenced. The terms of the member specific benefit plan document [e.g., Certificate of Coverage (COC), Schedule of Benefits (SOB), and/or Summary Plan Description (SPD)] may differ greatly from the standard benefit plan upon which this Dental Coverage Guideline is based. In the event of a conflict, the member specific benefit plan document supersedes this Dental Coverage Guideline. All reviewers must first identify member eligibility, any federal or state regulatory requirements, and the member specific benefit plan coverage prior to use of this Dental Coverage Guideline. Other Clinical Policies and Coverage Guidelines may apply. UnitedHealthcare reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to modify its Policie s and Guidelines as necessary. This Dental Coverage Guideline is provided for informational purposes. It does not constitute medical advice. BENEFIT CONSIDERATIONS Before using this guideline, please check the member specific benefit plan document and any federal or state mandates, if applicable. Essential Health Benefits for Individual and Small Group For plan years beginning on or after January 1, 2014, the Affordable Care Act of 2010 (ACA) requires fully insured non-grandfathered individual and small group health plans (inside and outside of Exchanges) to provide coverage for Pediatric Dental Essential Health Benefits ( EHBs ). Large group plans (both self-funded and fully insured), and small group ASO plans, are not subject to the requirement to offer coverage for Pediatric Dental EHBs. However, if such plans choose to provide coverage for benefits which are deemed Pediatric Dental EHBs, the ACA requires all dollar limits on those benefits to be removed on all Grandfathered and Non-Grandfathered plans. The determination of which benefits constitute Pediatric Dental EHBs is made on a state by state basis. As such, when using this guideline, it is important to refer to the member specific benefit plan document to determine benefit coverage. COVERAGE RATIONALE Vital Pulp Therapy Direct Pulp Cap Direct pulp capping is indicated for the following: Tooth has a vital pulp or been diagnosed with reversible pulpitis All caries has been removed Mechanical exposure of a clinically vital and asymptomatic pulp occurs Bleeding is controlled at the exposure site Exposure permits the capping material to make direct contact with the vital pulp tissue Exposure occurs when the tooth is under dental dam isolation Adequate seal of the coronal restoration can be maintained Patient has been fully informed that endodontic treatment may be indicated in the future Direct Pulp capping is not indicated for a carious exposure in primary teeth Non-Surgical Endodontics Page 1 of 5
2 Indirect Pulp Cap Indirect pulp capping is indicated for the following: Tooth has a vital pulp or been diagnosed with reversible pulpitis Tooth has a deep carious lesion that is considered likely to result in pulp exposure during excavation No history of subjective pretreatment symptoms Pretreatment radiographs should not show periradicular pathosis Therapeutic Pulpotomy Therapeutic pulpotomy is indicated for the following: Exposed vital pulps or irreversible pulpitis of primary teeth Any bleeding was controlled within several minutes As an emergency procedure in permanent teeth until root canal treatment can be accomplished As an interim procedure for permanent teeth with immature root formation to allow continued root development In primary teeth, where there is a reasonable period of retention expected (approximately one year) Therapeutic pulpotomy is not indicated for the following: Primary teeth with insufficient root structure, internal resorption, furcal perforation or periradicular pathosis that may jeopardize the permanent successor As the first stage of complete root canal therapy Removal of pulp apical to the dentinocemental junction For primary teeth that are near exfoliation or less than 50% of the tooth root remains Partial Pulpectomy for Apexogenesis A partial pulpotomy for apexogenesis is indicated for the following: In a young permanent tooth for a carious pulp exposure When the pulpal bleeding is controlled within several minutes A vital tooth, with a diagnosis of normal pulp or reversible pulpitis Apexification/Recalcification Apexification/recalcification is indicated for the following: Incomplete apical closure in a permanent tooth root External root resorption or when the possibility of external root resorption exists. Necrotic pulp, irreversible pulpitis or periapical lesion For prevention or arrest of resorption Perforations or root fractures that do not communicate with oral cavity Apexification/recalcification is not indicated for the following: Tooth with a completely closed apex If patient compliance or long term follow up may be questionable Pulpal Regeneration Pulpal regeneration is indicated for the following: Permanent tooth with immature apex Necrotic pulp Pulp space not needed for post/core or final restoration When tooth is not restorable Pulpal regeneration is not indicated for the following: Primary teeth The pulp space would be needed for final restoration Non-Vital Pulp Therapy Pulpal Debridement (Pulpectomy) Pulpal debridement (pulpectomy) is indicated for the following: A restorable permanent tooth with irreversible pulpitis or a necrotic pulp in which the root is apexified The relief of acute pain prior to complete root canal therapy A primary tooth, where there is a reasonable period of retention expected (approximately one year) Pulpal debridement (pulpectomy) is not indicated for the following: Complete root canal therapy of an infected or necrotic tooth Primary teeth that are near exfoliation or less than 50% of the tooth root remains Non-Surgical Endodontics Page 2 of 5
3 Pulpal Therapy (Resorbable Filling) Primary Teeth Pulpal therapy for primary teeth is indicated for the following: A restorable primary tooth with irreversible pulpitis or a necrotic pulp in which the root is apexified The prognosis for keeping the tooth is up to one year and the tooth root lies in at least 25% bone Pulpal therapy is not indicated for the following: Primary teeth that are near exfoliation or less than 50% of the tooth root remains Permanent teeth Endodontic Therapy Endodontic therapy is indicated for the following: A restorable mature, completely developed permanent or primary tooth with irre versible pulpitis, necrotic pulp or frank vital pulpal exposure Teeth with radiographic periapical pathology Primary teeth without a permanent successor Trauma When needed for prosthetic rehabilitation Endodontic therapy is not indicated for the following: Teeth with a poor long term prognosis Teeth that are considered non-restorable Teeth with inadequate bone support or advanced or untreated periodontal disease Teeth with incompletely formed root apices Treatment of Root Canal Obstruction; Non-Surgical Access Treatment of a root canal obstruction is indicated for the following: When there is an obstruction of the root canal system, (biological, iatrogenic ledges or post removal) and endodontic retreatment is needed Removal of obstruction is complex and/or requires significant time Treatment of a root canal obstruction is not indicated when there is no obstruction evident. Incomplete Endodontic Therapy: Inoperable, Unrestorable or Fractured Tooth Incomplete endodontic therapy is indicated for the following: During endodontic treatment of a tooth, it becomes apparent that the procedure cannot be successfully completed The tooth will not be able to be restored, or the tooth fractures, necessitating discontinuation of treatment Internal Root Repair of Perforation Defects Internal root repair of perforation defects is indicated for the following: There is a root perforation caused by pathology such as resorption or decay A communication between the pulp space and external root surface as a result of i nternal root resorption.
