Percutaneous Jaw Fracture Fixation

Arizona rates for HCPCS 21452

This stabilizes a broken lower jaw using pins placed through the skin that connect to an external frame, holding the bone fragments in proper position while they heal. It's a less invasive alternative to fully opening the jaw surgically, used when the fracture pattern allows the bone to be aligned and held externally. The frame typically stays in place for several weeks until the bone has healed enough to remove it.
