Complex Abscess Drainage

Connecticut rates for HCPCS D7511

A surgical procedure to drain a dental infection that has spread beyond a single, easily reached pocket of pus into deeper or multiple areas of tissue. It typically involves a more extensive incision and sometimes a small drain to keep the area open, and is used for infections that are more serious than a simple, localized abscess.
