DinoDMD   Member Since: 11/21/03  Post: 1 of 76   Related Message Boards Anyone Else Addicted to Magnification? Magnification Attention Loupe Users- Magnification Dilemma? Magnification Dilemma Without this shot, patient would have not received her insurance payment. Didn't really matter to me because I already got paid! But since I happen to have an intra-operative photo anyways (as I always do), I figured why not give it a shot? And it worked! Patient got paid and I did not even have to write narratives or make phone calls. How does one put an ROI figure to that? Diagnosis: Cracked tooth syndrome. Treatment: Bonded core and full coverage crown. Insurance company: denied because X-rays do not show evidence of extensive decay or cusp fracture. Me: Please review diagnosis and enclosed intra-operative photograph and kindly reconsider! Thank you. Bottom line: Microscopes have so much hidden value, it is difficult to uncover them all! In this thread, I would like to blog the microscope's many hidden values for anyone outside of the scope world interested in learning. All scope users are welcome to contribute. Now, imagine being able to grab an intra-operative shot of every tooth treated and not worrying when an insurance denial occurs, which appears to be happening more frequently lately! n OCT 24 2013 ssherv Member Since: 02/17/02   Post: 4 of 76   It's true that a rinse before the shot would have been better, but I still see the interproximal crack. I have been taking intra-operative shots of all my preps for the last two or three years. I do it to critique my preps, but they have come in handy for insurance purposes. n OCT 24 2013 DinoDMD   Member Since: 11/21/03   Posts: 9-10, 15 & 24 of 76   Picture (documentation) is worth a thousand words...not only when trying to get insurance approval, but also for patient education and medicolegal reasons, too! Additionally, ergonomics of a scope is not only realized through working in a comfortable upright posture, but also in having the ability to snap pics on the fly without missing a beat during treatment.

Is it any wonder why the number one workrelated disability issue among dental professionals involves neck and back pain problems? 32 JUNE 2014 » dentaltown.com http://www.Dentaltown.com http://www.dentaltown.com/MessageBoard/thread.aspx?a=11&s=2&f=188&t=223828&g=1 http://www.dentaltown.com/MessageBoard/thread.aspx?a=11&s=2&f=101&t=61983&g=1 http://www.dentaltown.com
