2026 CDT Codes: Clinical Practice Series
The CDT educational series offers seven on-demand Online Courses that give a comprehensive look into the structure, maintenance and ongoing updates of the CDT codes.
Four of them are designed for dentists to learn about and attain skills for procedures, while not new, did not previously have their own codes. These sessions will be presented from a clinical perspective and will not address the coding process directly.
The series also features a recorded panel discussion that explains codes recently brought before the Code Maintenance Committee (CMC), explaining what changes were accepted for CDT 2026, and most importantly, the rationale behind them. You'll gain insight into the key factors that influence code additions, revisions or deletions, and understand how these decisions affect day-to-day clinical practice.
Wrapping up this series will be a recorded session dedicated to answering questions submitted by dental professionals throughout the program. This Q&A session will feature the same panelists from the previous recorded panel discussion.
