ICD-10 Code K08.193 – Complete loss of teeth due to other specified cause, class III (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code K08.193 – Complete loss of teeth due to other specified cause, class III
What it is
K08.193 identifies complete loss of teeth caused by an other specified reason, classified as class III. Use it when the record documents total tooth loss and the cause is neither congenital nor due to a more specific listed condition.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. The chart should support complete edentulism and note the specified nonstandard cause, such as trauma, disease, or another documented factor.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents full loss of all teeth and identifies an “other specified” cause, with class III recorded in the note or classification. It may apply in dental, oral surgery, or medical records when the etiology is clearly stated. Check documentation if the cause is vague.
Do not use for
Do not use it for partial tooth loss, missing individual teeth, or edentulism with a different documented cause. If the record does not specify class III or the cause is unclear, check documentation.
Coding tip
Code the documented cause and class exactly as stated; do not assume class III from the diagnosis alone.
