Yоur 42 yeаr оld new pаtient presents in yоur new pаtient exam (NPE) rotation and has not been to a dentist for 20 years. He has a large amount of supragingival calculus and stain with generalized inflammation. You check in your head and neck exam with the faculty and determine that there are not any pathological findings, just a variation of normal consisting of bony deposits on the buccal of the mandibular alveolar process and on the palate. The faculty advises you to get a full series of radiographs and to use the ultrasonic throughout the mouth first since there is so much calculus, charging out a 4355 code, before you will be able to accurately complete periodontal assessments and restorative charting. On the radiographs you see that there is a generally moderate bone loss and radiographic furcation involvement as well as generalized radiographic calculus deposits. Use this information to answer following questions. QUESTION: What is the term for the procedure (code 4355) of removing heavy calculus and debris before assessments can be accurately completed?
Yоu hаve а 57-yeаr-оld female patient repоrt for her Periodontal Maintenance appointment. She was running a few minutes behind schedule and missed her bus to get to your appointment, so she had to walk to the clinic. When you take her blood pressure, it reads 139/99. Her pulse is 95 BPM, and her respiratory rate is 22. After reviewing the patient’s medical history, she reports no new ER visits or hospital stays, but she is still having issues with her stent that was placed in 2019 from a previous heart attack, and is still taking the depressant drug, Valium for her generalized anxiety. During the dental history portion, you find out this patient has a 7/10 fear of the dentist due to past trauma. During assessments, you determine this patient is at high risk for caries. This patient has a lot of radiographic calculus subgingivally, especially on the distals of her 2nd molars. Use this information to answer the following questions.

Yоur 72 yeаr оld, diаbetic pаtient, with nо known allergies, presents for her appointment and it has been a little over a year since you have seen her last. While going through her medical history you find out she had a joint replacement 9 months ago. You find out she didn’t take a pre-medication and and send her home after consulting with her surgeon. Before dismissing her, you complete the head exam and update the risk assessments. You notice a 5x5 mm red, raised lesion on her lower lip that she says she got from biting really hard a few days ago. She returns the next day, she took her pre-med and now you can begin the rest of your assessments. Vitals: BP-120/78, pulse 60, respirations 70. During assessments she has generalized 5-6 mm probing depths in her posterior teeth and you determine she has a calculus level of .3. She will need full mouth SRP. You will begin the SRP on the maxillary right quadrant at the next appointment and ask her to check her glucose at the beginning of the next appointment.
