Hi guest!

D7294 - surgical placement of temporary anchorage device without flap; includes device removal
The code listed above does not have 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

D7945 - osteotomy - body of mandible
can be crosscoded to:
21121 - sliding osteotomy, single piece

D9223 - deep sedation/general anesthesia — each 15-minute increment
can be crosscoded to:
00170 - Anesthesia for intraoral procedures, including biopsy; not otherwise specified
00172 - Anesthesia for intraoral procedures, including biopsy; repair of cleft palate
00174 - Anesthesia for intraoral procedures, including biopsy; excision of retropharyngeal tumor
00176 - Anesthesia for intraoral procedures, including biopsy; radical surgery
01999 - Unlisted anesthesia procedure(s)


As far as the ICD-10 diagnosis codes for the procedures above, that all depends on the condition your patient has (basically, why are these services being done?) If you would like to give me a description of the condition(s), I would be happy to help you locate some ICD-10 diagnosis coding options.

Hope this helps!

Hi Guest!

D6114 - Implant/abutment supported fixed denture for edentulous arch - maxillary
D6115 - Implant/abutment supported fixed denture for edentulous arch - mandibular


There are not a direct crosscodes we are aware of for these procedures, so you can either:
- use the "D" code on the pre-authorization request/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!

Hope this helps!

Hi Mollie!

D9248 - non-intravenous conscious sedation
For patients 5+ years old, can be cross coded to:
99152
Moderate sedation services provided by the same physician or other qualified health care professional performing the diagnostic or therapeutic service that the sedation supports, requiring the presence of an independent trained observer to assist in the monitoring of the patient’s level of consciousness and physiological status; initial 15 minutes of intraservice time, patient age 5 years or older
99153
Moderate sedation services provided by the same physician or other qualified health care professional performing the diagnostic or therapeutic service that the sedation supports, requiring the presence of an independent trained observer to assist in the monitoring of the patient’s level of consciousness and physiological status; each additional 15 minutes intraservice time (list separately in addition to code for primary service)


D7240 - Removal of impacted tooth - completely bony

As for the CPT code for extractions, there is actually not direct crosscode, 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 one of the CPT code below and include a narrative report describing the procedure:
41899 - Unlisted procedure, dentoalveolar structures


Hope this helps!

Hi Tabitha!

D6114 - Implant/abutment supported fixed denture for edentulous arch - maxillary
D6058 - abutment supported porcelain/ceramic crown
D6057 - custom fabricated abutment – includes placement
D6055 - connecting bar – implant supported or abutment supported
D6115 - Implant/abutment supported fixed denture for edentulous arch - mandibular

There are not a direct crosscodes we are aware of for these procedures, so you can either:
- use the "D" code on the pre-authorization request/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!

Hello,
Can you convert these CDT codes to CPT codes and confirm for the ones where I do have the translation, If it is correct.

D2740
D2950
D4266 (CPT Code = 41870)
D6010 (CPT Code = 21248)
D6057 (CPT Code Unlisted = 41899)
D7210
D7953
D9944

I had dental trauma from an accident, My dental office stated that they can not submit to medical insurance because they do not have that capability since we are a general dentist.

However, can’t they just convert the codes and submit?
