Here is the scenario.
A mucoperiosteal flap was raised, teeth were luxated using a small straight elevator. The teeth were then either removed using that elevator or forceps #150 to remove the remaining teeth. Removal of bone and or sectioning the tooth was not necessary.
Is this considered simple extraction (D7140) or surgical extraction (D7120).
Thank you.
