The American Dental Association’s CDT 2024: Current Dental Terminology provides the most current information required for consistent and accurate documentation of services delivered, facilitating efficient processing of dental claims. This book includes every code with its full descriptor. Understanding the descriptor can help determine whether the procedure code accurately describes the service provided and can help resolve questions about the accuracy of claim submissions. Dental practices can rely on the ADA, the official and definitive source of CDT, to help them submit accurate claims, and streamline reimbursements, and avoid rejections.

According to the ADA, CDT 2024 brings important changes to dental procedure coding. It includes 15 additions and 2 revisions, with no deleted codes in 2024. Notably, CDT 2024 introduces a new category of service for Sleep Apnea Services. Moreover, it features new codes for screening for sleep-related breathing disorders, fabrication and delivery of oral appliance therapy (OAT), excisional biopsy of minor salivary glands, immunization counseling, application of hydroxyapatite regeneration medicament, and placement of a custom removable clear plastic temporary aesthetic appliance.

In addition to providing the most up-to-date codes, CDT 2024 also includes access to the CDT e-book, mobile app, and web app, providing digital access to the full suite of CDT codes and descriptors. This comprehensive resource is further enhanced by the inclusion of ICD-10-CM codes for dental procedures, making CDT 2024 the most valuable resource to meet your coding needs.
