I had a traumatic fall 3 years ago and lost 2 teeth. Thousands of dollars later...still undergoing care. Finally at the stage of implant/post then right into crowns 6 months after healing. newest codes need to convert to medical codes:
D6010, D6104.
Appreciate ANY help.

Thanks,
Veronica

Hi Guest!
D6010 - surgical placement of implant body: endosteal implant
can be cross coded to:
21248 - Reconstruction of mandible or maxilla, endosteal implant (eg, blade, cylinder); partial
21249 - Reconstruction of mandible or maxilla, endosteal implant (eg, blade, cylinder); complete
D6104 - bone graft at time of implant placement
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
Hope this helps!
