Hi Guest!

D3428 - bone graft in conjunction with periradicular surgery – per tooth, single site
D7953 - bone replacement graft for ridge preservation - per site
Can be cross coded to:
21210 - Graft, bone; nasal, maxillary or malar areas (includes obtaining graft)
21215 - Graft, bone; mandible (includes obtaining graft)
**use modifier -52 for reduced services when bone is not obtained from patient

D6100 - implant removal, by report
Can be crosscoded to:
20670 - Removal of implant due to complications (superficial)
20680 - Removal of implant due to complications (deep)

D7410 - excision of benign lesion up to 1.25 cm
can be crosscoded to:
40810 - Excision of lesion of mucosa and submucosa, vestibule of mouth; without repair
40812 - Excision of lesion of mucosa and submucosa, vestibule of mouth; with simple repair
40814 - Excision of lesion of mucosa and submucosa, vestibule of mouth; with complex repair
40816 - Excision of lesion of mucosa and submucosa, vestibule of mouth; complex, with excision of underlying muscle


D3410 - apicoectomy – anterior
D3430 - retrograde filling - per root
D3432 - guided tissue regeneration, resorbable barrier, per site, in conjunction with periradicular surgery
D4249 - clinical crown lengthening – hard tissue
D3431 - biologic materials to aid in soft and osseous tissue regeneration in conjunction with periradicular surgery
D7210 - Extraction, erupted tooth requiring removal of bone and/or sectioning of tooth, and including elevation of mucoperiosteal flap if indicated
D4266 - guided tissue regeneration - resorbable barrier, per site
D4265 - biologic materials to aid in soft and osseous tissue regeneration

The codes listed above do not have direct crosscodes 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 use the CPT code below and include a narrative report describing the procedure:
41899 - Unlisted procedure, dentoalveolar structures


Hope this helps!
