Hi Guest!
D3310 - Endodontic therapy anterior tooth (excluding final restoration) D2950 - core buildup, including any pins when required D2740 - crown - porcelain/ceramic D9951 - occlusal adjustment - limited
The codes listed above do not have direct crosscodes we are aware of - 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 medical diagnosis codes (ICD-10 codes) that describe the trauma and how it happened. If you'd like to provide me with a few more details about the fall, I'd be happy to provide you some coding options. For example, if you fell from tripping on the same level, the code to describe that is: W01.0XXA - Fall on same level from slipping, tripping and stumbling without subsequent striking against object, initial encounter
Here are some commonly used diagnosis codes for trauma to teeth, depending on what type of damage occurred:
S02.5XXA - Fracture of tooth (traumatic), initial encounter for closed fracture S02.5XXB - Fracture of tooth (traumatic), initial encounter for open fracture
K08.411 - Partial loss of teeth due to trauma, class I K08.412 - Partial loss of teeth due to trauma, class II K08.413 - Partial loss of teeth due to trauma, class III K08.414 - Partial loss of teeth due to trauma, class IV
S03.2XXA - Dislocation of tooth, initial encounter
G89.11 - Acute pain due to trauma
Hope this helps!
