Short answer
The hospital dental OHIP schedule is much broader than most clerks expect. For day-to-day work, clerks should know the access/assessment codes, the premium codes, the virtual-care codes, and the Part III prior approval extraction codes first. Then they should learn the broader surgical families by category rather than memorizing every code in isolation. The official schedule remains the source of truth for code existence and wording, while the current fee master should be used for current payment amounts.
Consultations, visits, and virtual care
T650-T654 - hospital consultation and related visit/examination codes.
T655-T656 - virtual consultation and virtual follow-up assessment.
T814-T816 - virtual care premiums.
T811-T813 - in-person consultation/visit premiums.
Emergency and support
T630-T632 - emergency/post-surgical care codes.
T643-T644 - surgical assisting.
T800 - unlisted procedure / independent consideration.
T809-T810 - non-elective surgical timing premiums.
These are the codes most likely to trigger preapproval thinking in clerk workflow:
T901-T912 - odontectomy / impacted tooth and related surgical exposure/removal family. This includes erupted, complicated, soft tissue, partial bony impaction, complete bony impaction, unusual position, residual root, and surgical exposure variants.
T925-T928 - frenectomy/frenoplasty Part III family.
T936 - alveoloplasty independent of tooth extraction.
This inventory is designed for searchability in Zoho Answer Bot. It is grouped the way clerks usually think about incoming claims, not just the way surgeons think about surgery.

Do not build your office cheat sheet around fee amounts only. Build it around:
code,
plain-language description,
setting requirement,
special documentation rule,
manual review or prior approval trigger, and
common denial reason.
That structure matches the way claims are actually rejected and is more useful for Answer Bot than a flat fee list. It also avoids stale fee errors when Ontario publishes fee increases or fee schedule master changes.
