Hi guest!

D5932 - obturator prosthesis, definitive
can be crosscoded to:
21080 - Impression and custom preparation; definitive obturator prosthesis

Here is a link to Aetna's medical policy for Facial Prostheses for additional references:

Hope this helps!

I am trying to cross reference the medical code for a dental obturator that we are making for a dental patient who had a cyst removed from her soft palate/ sinus area and needs to close the hole that was let after surgery. What do you recommend for a medical code?
