CPT code 21073 was added in CPT 2008 to report thera-peutic temporomandibular joint manipulation and requires the use of general or monitored anesthesia care. Because diagnostic manipulation can also be provided for the tem-poromandibular joint, a differentiation has been designat-ed for this procedure, adding the word therapeutic to the descriptor to differentiate use of this code from those for diagnostic purposes.
21073 Manipulation of temporomandibular joint(s) (TMJ), therapeutic, requiring an anesthesia
service (ie, general or monitored anesthesia care)
