Can you help me find a medical code for Occlusal Equilibration D9952?

Hi Guest!

There is not a specific CPT code we are aware of that represents this procedure, so you can either file D9952 on the medical claim, or if the insurer you are filing to does not process "D" codes (many medical insurers do process "D" codes these days if they are medically necessary services that do not have a direct crosscode to CPT), you can use a miscellaneous/unlisted service/procedure CPT code and include a narrative report to describe the procedure, such as:

41899 - Unlisted procedure, dentoalveolar structures

Hope this helps!
