Hi Guest! Here are the CPT codes for bone grafts: 21210 – graft, bone; nasal, maxillary, or malar areas or, 21215 – graft, mandibular **use modifier -52 for reduced services when bone is not obtained from patient As for CT scan: 70486 – Computed tomography, maxillofacial area; without contrast material or, if it is a CBCT: 76102 – Radiologic examination, complex motion (ie, hypercycloidal) body section (eg, mastoid polytomography), other than with urography; bilateral As for implants: 21248 – Reconstruction of mandible or maxilla, endosteal implant (eg, blade, cylinder); partial(3or less) 21249 – Reconstruction of mandible or maxilla, endosteal implant (eg, blade, cylinder); complete (4 or more) exams/office visits: these are billed in medical as Evaluation & Management (E&M) codes – new patients 99201 through 99205, and established patients as 99211-99215. For the diagnosis code(s), that all depends on that patient”s condition/why the services are being done. For example, if these services are being done due to atrophy, here are some coding options: 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 We host wonderful seminars across the country for dental practices billing medical insurance for sleep apnea, TMJD and oral surgery services.
