The American Dental Association (ADA) annually updates its standard dental procedure coding system, which is a component of its Code on Dental Procedures and Nomenclature (CDT Code) reference manual. When the ADA changes the codes, carriers must adopt the changes. We process claims according to the current CDT reference manual. Changes made to comply with the CDT Code do not constitute a material change to your dental plan design.
