Hi Beth,
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery is a very unique department. There is a medical conversion allowed from dental codes to medical codes. Procedures done in Oral surgery can be billed as medical procedures. Teeth extractions can be billed as medical procedures if done in conjunction with other billable medical procedures. Hope this helps.
Regards,
Luz
