Hi Guest!


D6010 - surgical placement of implant body: endosteal implant

21248 - Reconstruction of mandible or maxilla, endosteal implant (eg, blade, cylinder); partial(3 or less)
21249 - Reconstruction of mandible or maxilla, endosteal implant (eg, blade, cylinder); complete (4 or more)


D7952 - sinus augmentation via a vertical approach
Can be cross coded to:
21210 - graft, bone; nasal, maxillary, or malar areas
**use modifier -52 for reduced services when bone is not obtained from patient


D7310
– alveoloplasty in conjunction with extractions – four or more teeth or tooth spaces, per quadrant
can be cross coded to:
41874 - Alveoloplasty, each quadrant (specify)


D9219 - Evaluation for moderate sedation, deep sedation or general anesthesia
can be crosscoded to:
99202 - new patient level 2 evaluation & management
or
99212 - established patient level 2 evaluation & management


D9223 – deep sedation/general anesthesia – each additional 15 minutes
can be crosscoded to:
00170 - Anesthesia for intraoral procedures, including biopsy; not otherwise specified


D9612 - therapeutic parenteral drugs, two or more administrations, different medications
can be crosscoded to:
96372 - Therapeutic, prophylactic, or diagnostic injection (specify substance or drug); subcutaneous or intramuscular
or
96373 - Therapeutic, prophylactic, or diagnostic injection (specify substance or drug); intra-arterial


D4263 - bone replacement graft - first site in quadrant

21210 - graft, bone; nasal, maxillary, or malar areas
or
21215 - graft, mandibular
**use modifier -52 for reduced services when bone is not obtained from patient


D7921 – collection and application of autologous blood concentrate product
can be crosscoded to:
0232T - Injection(s), platelet rich plasma, any site, including image guidance, harvesting and preparation when performed



D7210 - Extraction, erupted tooth requiring removal of bone and/or sectioning of tooth, and including elevation of mucoperiosteal flap if indicated
FIBROG - Fibro-Gide

There are not direct crosscodes we are aware of for extractions or tissue regeneration, so you can either bill the "D" code on the medical claim (many insurers these days will process "D" codes when they are medically necessary services), or you can use the CPT code below and include a narrative report describing the procedure:
41899 - Unlisted procedure, dentoalveolar structures



Hope this helps!

Hi,
My bother and I were born with a genetic condition call Ectodermal Dysplasia. Currently we are both in the process of oral surgery along with prosthetic work. Our biggest challenge is getting all of the medical information together to submit to medical insurance. I am hoping someone can help me convert these CDT codes to CPT codes?
