Open Repair of a Broken Jaw With the Teeth Fastened

Wyoming rates for HCPCS 21462

Surgery that exposes a break in the lower jaw and holds the pieces with plates and screws, while wires or elastics also fasten the upper and lower teeth against each other. Setting the teeth into their normal bite guides the jaw bones into exactly the right position as they heal. Diet is restricted for as long as the teeth are held together.
