Question juridique clé
Whether the insurer must reimburse the costs of the wisdom tooth Nr. 18 extraction and related abscess treatment
Solution extraite
No coverage was owed because the extraction and abscess treatment were not shown to require particularly difficult or extraordinary measures under the KLV criteria.
Motifs extraits
Although the tooth was displaced and contributed to the abscess, the treatment used standard dental techniques; two abscess incisions and an osteotomy without separation did not establish special circumstances or a difficult, laborious pathology treatment.
