Good Afternoon, Would you be able to assist in pointing me in the right direction in looking for a diagnosis code for procedure D4277. I”ve tried to research and haven”t been able to locate anything that quite makes any sense. Thank you in advance!
Hi guest! Yes we are happy to help. D4277 = free soft tissue graft procedure (including donor site surgery), first tooth or edentulous tooth position in graft Basically, the diagnosis code will depend on the patient”s condition! For example, if the graft is being done due to bone atrophy, here are some ICD-10 diagnosis coding options below: K08.21 – Minimal atrophy of the mandible K08.22 – Moderate atrophy of the mandible K08.23 – Severe atrophy of the mandible K08.24 – Minimal atrophy of maxilla K08.25 – Moderate atrophy of the maxilla K08.26 – Severe atrophy of the maxilla If it is being done for another reason, let me know what the patient”s issue/condition is and I will help you locate some coding options.
We are trying to find a ICD10 code for a D4277, the reason for this is recession on lower anterior teeth. Would there be a code to fit that?
Hi Guest! Here are some coding options for you: K06.011 – Localized gingival recession, minimal K06.012 – Localized gingival recession, moderate K06.013 – Localized gingival recession, severe K06.021 – Generalized gingival recession, minimal K06.022 – Generalized gingival recession, moderate K06.023 – Generalized gingival recession, severe Hope this helps!
