Hi Guest!
D0150 - comprehensive oral evaluation - new or established patient can be crosscoded to: 99202 - level 2 new patient Evaluation & Management (office visit) or 99212 - level 2 established patient Evaluation & Management (office visit)
D7140 - Extraction, erupted tooth or exposed root (elevation and/or forceps removal) D6548 - Retainer - porcelain/ceramic for resin bonded fixed prosthesis D6245 - pontic - porcelain/ceramic D0470 - diagnostic casts
The services listed above actually do not have direct crosscode - so you can either bill the "D" code on the medical claim (many insurers these days will process "D" codes when they are medically necessary services), or you can use the CPT code below and include a narrative report describing the procedure: 41899 - Unlisted procedure, dentoalveolar structures
You will also need ICD-10 (diagnosis) codes to describe the injury to the teeth and how it occurred. Here are some commonly used ICD-10 codes for injury to teeth:
S02.5XXA - Fracture of tooth (traumatic), initial encounter for closed fracture S02.5XXB - Fracture of tooth (traumatic), initial encounter for open fracture S03.2XXA - Dislocation of tooth, initial encounter G89.11 - Acute pain due to trauma
You will also need a code to describe how the accident happened. If you'd like to provide me with some details about the accident/injury, i'm happy to provide you with some coding options.
Hope this helps!

My husband had an injury to front tooth and it had to be removed and a bridge created.

Also went to a facility that has used codes 150 - Comprehensive Oral Eval 470 - Diagnostic Casts
