Detailed And Extensive Oral Evaluation—Problem-Focused, By Report:
A detailed and extensive problem-focused evaluation entails extensive diagnostic
and cognitive modalities based on the findings of a comprehensive oral evaluation.
Integration of more extensive diagnostic modalities to develop a treatment plan
for a specific problem is required. The condition requiring this type of evaluation
should be described and documented. Examples of conditions requiring this type
of evaluation may include dentofacial anomalies, complicated perio-prosthetic

severe systemic diseases requiring multi-disciplinary consultation, etc.
