    I have a patient that was hit in the mouth with a softball. Her cheek was attached to her braces. So far I have: Diagnosis S09.93xA Injury of Face W21.07xA Struck by softball, initial encounter M27.2 Inflammation of Jaw Procedures 99214 Established Patient Trauma 99058 Worked into schedule I am trying to figure out if there is a code for him numbing the patient and detaching her cheek from the braces. Can you help me with that?

    Hi guest! Note from Rose: The numbing would be included in the procedure: Diagnosis ICD S01.409A Open Wound of Cheek and Temporomandibular Area Procedure CPT 41805 Removal of embedded foreign body from dentoalveolar structures; soft tissues Or CPT 41899 Unlisted procedure, dentoalveolar structures
