Jaw Joint Manipulation Under Anesthesia

Massachusetts rates for HCPCS 21073

This procedure manually repositions the jaw joint while the patient is under anesthesia, used to release a joint that has become locked or is not moving properly. Anesthesia allows the muscles around the joint to relax fully so the joint can be moved without the discomfort or resistance that would occur while awake. It's typically used when simpler in-office measures haven't resolved the problem.
