Patient got into a car accident and face was hit by the airbag.
Would anyone know what the CPT code for the following dental code

Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you

Hi guest!

D3346 - retreatment of previous root canal therapy - anterior
D3310 - endodontic therapy anterior tooth (excluding final restoration)
D2954 - prefabricated post and core in addition to crown
D6750 - retainer crown - porcelain fused to high noble metal
D6240 - pontic - porcelain fused to high noble metal


The codes listed above do not have a direct crosscode we are aware of, 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 try the CPT code below and include a narrative report describing the procedure:
41899 - Unlisted procedure, dentoalveolar structures


Hope this helps!
