Hi Guest! The diagnosis code(s) will depend on the patient”s condition/symptoms – so in other words, why is the patient receiving the services? For example, you may consider: Z01.20 – Encounter for dental examination and cleaning without abnormal findings Z01.21 – Encounter for dental examination and cleaning with abnormal findings K02.3 – Arrested dental caries K02.51 – Dental caries on pit and fissure surface limited to enamel K02.52 – Dental caries on pit and fissure surface penetrating into dentin K02.53 – Dental caries on pit and fissure surface penetrating into pulp K02.61 – Dental caries on smooth surface limited to enamel K02.62 – Dental caries on smooth surface penetrating into dentin K02.63 – Dental caries on smooth surface penetrating into pulp K02.7 – Dental root caries K02.9 – Dental caries, unspecified K03.89 – Other specified diseases of hard tissues of teeth K04.1 – Necrosis of pulp K04.2 – Pulp degeneration K04.01 – Reversible pulpitis K04.02 – Irreversible pulpitis K05.211 – Aggressive periodontitis, localized, slight K05.212 – Aggressive periodontitis, localized, moderate K05.213 – Aggressive periodontitis, localized, severe K05.219 – Aggressive periodontitis, localized, unspecified severity K05.221 – Aggressive periodontitis, generalized, slight K05.222 – Aggressive periodontitis, generalized, moderate K05.223 – Aggressive periodontitis, generalized, severe K05.229 – Aggressive periodontitis, generalized, unspecified severity K05.311 – Chronic periodontitis, localized, slight K05.312 – Chronic periodontitis, localized, moderate K05.313 – Chronic periodontitis, localized, severe K05.319 – Chronic periodontitis, localized, unspecified severity K05.321 – Chronic periodontitis, generalized, slight K05.322 – Chronic periodontitis, generalized, moderate K05.323 – Chronic periodontitis, generalized, severe K05.329 – Chronic periodontitis, generalized, unspecified severity K05.10 – Chronic gingivitis, plaque induced K05.11 – Chronic gingivitis, non-plaque induced K08.89 – Other specified disorders of teeth and supporting structures If you have additional details about the patient”s condition, i”m happy to offer you some coding options. Hope this helps!
