I need help converting some dental codes to CPT. Are there equivalent CPT codes for D7270, D2331, D2950 and D2740?

Hi guest!

D7270 - tooth reimplantation and/or stabilization of accidentally evulsed or displaced tooth
D2331 - resin-based composite - two surfaces, anterior
D2950 - core buildup, including any pins when required
D2740 - crown - porcelain/ceramic substrate

None of the codes listed above have a direct crosscode we are aware of, 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 try the CPT code below and include a narrative report describing the procedure:
41899 - Unlisted procedure, dentoalveolar structures

Hope this helps, have a great day!
