Hello Open Dental gurus!

Can you help move my code for all ceramic crown to "crowns?"

Thanks!

The procedure code is now in the right category. Thanks.

Is there a way to change the description? It currently reads, "Crown," however an accurate description would be, "Retainer."

Descriptions for ADA codes are not editable. They need to stay the same for when they are sent off to the insurance companies. You can change the Layman's Term to 'Retainer' and then most places in the program would display your new name.
