Other disorders of teeth and supporting structures

Not billableICD-10-CM diagnosis code.

This code exists but cannot be submitted on its own. It groups the more specific codes beneath it.

A category header for its whole life, FY2016 onwards. It has never been valid for submission on its own.

Submit one of these 8 more specific codes instead:

  • K08.0 Exfoliation of teeth due to systemic causes
  • K08.1 Complete loss of teeth (also a header)
  • K08.2 Atrophy of edentulous alveolar ridge (also a header)
  • K08.3 Retained dental root
  • K08.4 Partial loss of teeth (also a header)
  • K08.5 Unsatisfactory restoration of tooth (also a header)
  • K08.8 Other specified disorders of teeth and supporting structures (also a header)
  • K08.9 Disorder of teeth and supporting structures, unspecified

What has happened to this code

Every change the publisher made, from 2012 to now. Entries marked draft are from the pre-implementation releases: ICD-10 took effect on 1 October 2015, so nothing before FY2016 was ever valid on a claim.
