The Coding Mistakes Costing Dental Practices Thousands

About this episode

This episode discusses common coding and documentation issues in dental practices that lead to revenue loss.

Are dental practices unintentionally losing revenue because of coding and documentation gaps? In this episode of the Dental Billing Academy Podcast, Jacquelyn Hurley is joined by Dr. Iris Han and Dr. Greg Grobmyer of Practice Booster to discuss the most common coding and documentation issues they see when reviewing dental practices across the country. From underutilized CDT codes to missing clinical documentation and important 2026 CDT updates, this conversation explains why many practices are not capturing the reimbursement they deserve. You’ll learn how stronger documentation, accurate coding, and staying current with CDT changes can help your practice reduce denials, improve collections, and get paid properly for the dentistry you’re already providing. If you want to strengthen your revenue cycle without adding more patients, this episode is a must-listen.
