Periodontal abscess is usually found deep in the gum pockets (between the teeth and gums). As pus has nowhere to drain, the infection spreads to the surrounding tissues and jaw bone. Gingival abscess occurs in the gum tissue only and does not affect the tooth and the ligaments.
A periodontal abscess is a pocket of pus in the tissues of the gum. It looks like a small red ball pushing out of the swollen gum. An abscess can occur with serious gum disease (periodontitis), which causes the gums to pull away from the teeth.
ICD-10 code K05 for Gingivitis and periodontal diseases is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the digestive system .

A gum abscess occurs when bacteria in the mouth causes an infection in the space between the teeth and the gums. Some gum abscesses result from periodontitis disease, which is caused by poor oral hygiene.
Periodontal Abscess is caused due to impaction of foreign body in the Gums leading to an abscess. It is different from Acute apical periodontitis as the infection is passed into the periodontium through the root canal.
If gingivitis is left untreated, the plaque can accumulate and spread to the gumline. Bacteria in the plaque release toxins, which irritate and inflame the gums. This triggers a chronic inflammatory response in the body, which damages the gum tissue and bone that keep the teeth in place. The result is periodontitis.
An endodontic abscess is a pocket of pus that forms in the jawbone at the tip of a tooth root.
Abstract. The periodontal abscess is an acute destructive process in the periodontium resulting in localized collections of pus communicating with the oral cavity through the gingival sulcus or other periodontal sites and not arising from the tooth pulp.
Most abscesses are caused by a bacterial infection. When bacteria enter your body, your immune system sends infection-fighting white blood cells to the affected area. As the white blood cells attack the bacteria, some nearby tissue dies, creating a hole which then fills with pus to form an abscess.
Periodontal disease, chronic. Clinical Information. A disorder in the gingival tissue around the teeth. An inflammatory process of the gingival tissues and/or periodontal membrane of the teeth, resulting in an abnormally deep gingival sulcus, possibly producing periodontal pockets and loss of alveolar bone support.

Therefore, it would be appropriate to bill these more specific incision and drainage codes. For example: an abscess of the eyelid should be billed with procedure code 67700 (Blepharotomy, drainage of abscess, eyelid); a perirectal abscess should be billed with procedure code 46040 (Incision and drainage of ischiorectal and/or perirectal abscess); an abscess of the finger should be billed with procedure codes 26010-26011 (Drainage of finger abscess).
The following ICD-10-CM codes support medical necessity and provide coverage for CPT codes: 10060 and 10061.
If frequent incision and drainage is required, the medical record must reflect the reason for persistent/recurrent abscess formation, as well as any measures taken to prevent reoccurrence. For example, for repeated incision and drainage of an abscessed paronychia, the medical record should document any additional measures taken to prevent reoccurrence and/or the reason for not performing more definitive treatment (e.g., the patient refuses and/or is not a candidate for permanent, partial or complete nail and nail matrix removal).
