ICD-10 code: K04. 7 Periapical abscess without sinus.
Abstract. Chronic periapical abscess drains through a sinus tract either intraorally or extraorally. However, intraoral drainage is more common than extraoral in both dentitions. Nevertheless, the simultaneous presentation of extraoral and intraoral sinus tract is very rarely reported in primary dentition.
A periapical abscess is a collection of pus at the root of a tooth, usually caused by an infection that has spread from a tooth to the surrounding tissues.
ICD-10 code K12. 2 for Cellulitis and abscess of mouth is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the digestive system .
Periapical (tooth) abscess is the most common of three. It occurs in the tooth (inside the soft pulp), typically as a result of tooth decay. Pus may appear at the gum line, but in most cases ends up in surrounding tissue. Periodontal abscess is usually found deep in the gum pockets (between the teeth and gums).
Other indicators of a sinus infection are pain while opening the mouth while yawning, fever, chills and headache. Sinus pain usually manifests itself as a dull, continuous pain while the pain from an abscessed tooth increases in intensity. If you tap on an abscessed tooth, you will probably feel a sharp jolt of pain.
A periapical (per-e-AP-ih-kul) abscess occurs at the tip of the root. A periodontal (per-e-o-DON-tul) abscess occurs in the gums at the side of a tooth root.
The maxillary sinus is located behind the cheekbones close to the roots of the upper back teeth. Therefore an infection in the upper teeth can spread to the maxillary sinus rather easily. Symptoms of this type of sinus infection include post nasal drip and sinus congestion.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM M27. 2 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of M27.

A periapical tooth abscess occurs when bacteria invade the dental pulp. The pulp is the innermost part of the tooth that contains blood vessels, nerves and connective tissue. Bacteria enter through either a dental cavity or a chip or crack in the tooth and spread all the way down to the root.
A tooth abscess may cause a sinus infection, as can almost any type of bacterial infection in your upper teeth. In fact, there's a name for this type of sinus problem: maxillary sinusitis of endodontic origin. The maxillary sinus is located behind the cheekbones close to the roots of the upper back teeth.
What is the treatment for a dental sinus? Removal of the entire tooth (extraction) or necrotic dental pulp (root canal / endodontic treatment) is the only successful treatment for a dental sinus. Antibiotics such as penicillin or metronidazole may be also required.
The sinus tract usually disappears in 5 to 14 days after the root canal system has been thoroughly cleansed [17].
