Dental Invoice Template

Dental services invoice with item codes. Example: Examination $65, Scale & clean $150, X-rays $95.

What a dental invoice should itemise

• The provider number, and the dentist who performed the treatment
• The patient’s name and date of birth
• The date of service for each item, listed separately
• The ADA item number for each procedure, with a plain description
• Tooth number or quadrant where the item requires it
• The fee per item, any amount paid on the day, and the balance
• Your ABN and practice details

The invoice is usually a health fund claim in disguise

Patients hand a dental invoice to their fund and expect a rebate within days. Funds assess on item numbers and dates, and they decline quietly — the patient finds out weeks later and calls the practice. Getting item numbers and tooth notation right on the invoice removes almost all of that follow-up work.

• One line per item per tooth, even where the same item is repeated
• Use the current ADA schedule — item numbers change and funds price against the current list
• Show the gap the patient paid, because that is the figure they need to claim

Quotes for treatment plans

• Give a written plan with item numbers before major work, so the patient can get a pre-assessment from their fund
• State clearly that a quote is an estimate and what would change it
• Note where a fund annual limit is likely to be reached mid-plan
