Hi Guest!
D6100 - surgical removal of implant body
can be crosscoded to:
20670 - Removal of implant; superficial (eg, buried wire, pin or rod) (separate procedure)
20680 - Removal of implant; deep (eg, buried wire, pin, screw, metal band, nail, rod or plate)
As for diagnosis code(s) - it all depends on why the implant is being removed. Here's some commonly used options:
M27.61 - Osseointegration failure of dental implant
M27.62 - Post-osseointegration biological failure of dental implant
M27.63 - Post-osseointegration mechanical failure of dental implant
M27.69 - Other endosseous dental implant failure
Hope this helps!
