ADA provides students, residents with CDT 2023 App for free
Knowledge of CDT codes critical for practice success
For the first time, the ADA is providing every dental student and resident free access to the CDT 2023 App.
"Having knowledge and easy access to all of the dental codes and knowing how to accurately submit them are things every dentist should know," said Jessica Stilley-Mallah, D.M.D., chair of the ADA Council on Dental Benefit Programs. "The 2023 app provides an easy reference for students to acquaint themselves with dental procedure codes, and how they are used to document services delivered to a patient every day."
The CDT 2023 App for iPhone, Android, tablet or desktop computer includes:
- 2022 and 2023 codes and descriptors.
- All CDT codes organized by category of service: diagnostic, preventive, restorative, endodontics, periodontics, prosthodontics-removable, maxillofacial prosthetics, implant services, prosthodontics-fixed, oral and maxillofacial surgery, and orthodontics.
