CDT 2016 is the official source for the most accurate and up-to-date ADA dental procedure codes. Relying on old information may lead to unexpected claim denials or reimbursement delays. Code changes for 2016 include 19 new codes, 12 revised codes and 8 deleted codes.

CDT 2016 also features:
• new dental procedure codes to reflect technological advances in dentistry,
• new and revised diagnostic codes for radiography for more accurate reporting,
• new denture codes that allow for greater coding specificity and
• revised anesthesia codes to simplify reporting for general anesthesia and intravenous conscious sedation.
The CDT Companion is a training tool with coding Q and As, and exercises and quizzes to increase staff comprehension. Other features include a CDT Code to ICD Diagnosis Code Cross-Walk, an illustrated chapter on coding for dental implants and a comprehensive explanation of CDT code changes.
