2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code K08.119 – Complete loss of teeth due to trauma, unspecified class

What it is

K08.119 identifies complete tooth loss caused by trauma when the class of the injury is not specified. Use it for documented traumatic loss of all teeth, not loss from disease or age-related causes.

Clinical signs

Clinical features usually include absent teeth after an injury, with documentation of trauma as the cause. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use this code when the record states complete loss of teeth due to trauma and does not specify the class of injury. It also fits cases where the provider documents traumatic edentulism without another more specific dental or injury code. Check documentation if the cause is unclear.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for tooth loss from periodontal disease, caries, congenital absence, or routine age-related edentulism. If the trauma type or extent is documented more specifically, code that detail instead.

Coding tip

Match the code to explicit trauma documentation and confirm whether a more specific injury code is available.
