About coding mandibular pain
The ICD-10-CM code for mandibular pain is R68.84 (Jaw pain).
Within R68.8 (other general symptoms and signs), R68.84 is specifically for jaw pain. Related codes cover early satiety (R68.81), decreased libido (R68.82), Chills (without fever) (R68.83) and other general symptoms and signs (R68.89).
Don't report R68.84 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: temporomandibular joint arthralgia (M26.62-).
It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.

- temporomandibular joint arthralgia (M26.62-)
