The procedural codes are a bit simpler, since there are only two possible options for wisdom tooth removal:
The following are USSD codes that I use with my Android OS Mobile:-
Their corresponding character in ICD-10-CM is:
ICD-10 code Z98. 818 for Other dental procedure status is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Factors influencing health status and contact with health services .
Encounter for surgical aftercare following surgery on the teeth or oral cavity. Z48. 814 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
D7210 – surgical removal of erupted tooth requiring removal of bone and/or sectioning of tooth, and including elevation of mucoperiosteal flap if indicated. (The code description also includes the minor smoothing of socket bone and closure.)
Use of ICD-10 codes is supported by the American Dental Association. The ADA now includes both dental- and medical-related ICD-10 codes in its “CDT Code Book.” Dental schools have included the use of ICD-10 codes in their curricula to prepare graduating dentists for their use in practice.
D7230 removal of impacted tooth – partially bony Part of crown covered by bone; requires mucoperiosteal flap elevation and bone removal.
Other specified disorders of teeth and supporting structures The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM K08. 89 became effective on October 1, 2021.
CDT Codes are a set of medical codes for dental procedures that cover oral health and dentistry. Each procedural code is an alphanumeric code beginning with the letter “D” (the procedure code) and followed by four numbers (the nomenclature). It also includes written descriptions for some of the procedural codes.
D9222 – for deep sedation/general anesthesia, initial 15 minutes D9239 – for intravenous moderate (conscious) sedation/analgesia, initial 15 minutes Note: Base unit values will apply only to the initial 15 minutes of service.
The removal of the root portion of the tooth through elevation and forceps should be coded as a D7140 (extraction, erupted tooth or exposed root). If a flap, bone removal and/or root sectioning is required to remove the root, the correct code is D7210.
Because of this, the unlisted dental procedure code of 41899 is used for dental diagnostic and/or preventive procedures, dental restorations of fillings, tooth replacements, endodontic procedures such as root canals, and many other dental procedures when performed in an ambulatory center setting.
(X4) D7240 – Removal of Impacted Tooth, Completely Bony.
Biopsy of oral tissue - hard (bone, tooth) D7286. Biopsy of oral tissue - soft.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM K01.1 became effective on October 1, 2021.
A condition in which a tooth is so crowded in its socket that it cannot erupt normally. A tooth that is prevented from erupting by a physical barrier, usually other teeth. Impaction may also result from orientation of the tooth in an other than vertical position in the periodontal structures.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM K00.6 became effective on October 1, 2021.
