Wiki Oral Surgery - Extractions

Hi everyone

I was recently assigned to the Oral Maxillofacial work queue for my facility. My providers are oral surgeons who perform both out patient and in patient procedures.
My question is regarding extractions. The code I am currently using is 41899 which is "Unlisted procedure for Dentoalveolar structures." I am looking for a CPT code that
is a little more specific. We are not allowed to use "D" codes. Does such a code exist? Please help, I really don't want my providers to lose out. They do a lot of complicated surgical extractions.

Thanks in advance! :)
