Hi Guest!


D7960 - frenulectomy
can be crosscoded to:
41115 - Excision of lingual frenum (frenectomy)
40819 - Excision of frenum, labial or buccal (frenumectomy, frenulectomy, frenectomy)

As some ICD-10 coding options:
Q38.1 – Ankyloglossia
Q38.0 - Congenital malformations of lips, not elsewhere classified

Hope this helps!
