Hi guest!

No problem, below are some ICD-10 coding options for loss of teeth due to periodontal disease:

Partial loss of teeth due to periodontal disease:
K08.421 - Partial loss of teeth due to periodontal diseases, class I
K08.422 - Partial loss of teeth due to periodontal diseases, class II
K08.423 - Partial loss of teeth due to periodontal diseases, class III
K08.424 - Partial loss of teeth due to periodontal diseases, class IV
K08.429 - Partial loss of teeth due to periodontal diseases, unspecified class

Complete loss of teeth due to periodontal disease:
K08.121 - Complete loss of teeth due to periodontal diseases, class I
K08.122 - Complete loss of teeth due to periodontal diseases, class II
K08.123 - Complete loss of teeth due to periodontal diseases, class III
K08.124 - Complete loss of teeth due to periodontal diseases, class IV

And some additional options for fractured/cracked teeth:

There are separate ICD-10 codes for fracture due to trauma as well.

Hope this helps, have a great day!
