How should two composite restorations on the same tooth be charged?

As one restoration
As two restorations
As a complex restoration
Not charged

The correct answer is: As two restorations

Composite restorations are charges based on the amount of time and effort required rather than the number of restorations. Since two separate restorations require twice as much time and effort as one restoration, they should be charged as two restorations rather than one. Option A is incorrect because it does not accurately reflect the amount of time and effort required. Option C is incorrect because it refers to a "complex restoration" which is a different billing code and not applicable to two separate composite restorations. Option D is incorrect because services should always be appropriately charged and not left uncharged.
