### 1/5 — Words are in white

*2021-10-03*

Login or even the description for any code are in white typing 
It seems kind of app error 
Please fix

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-04-22*

Im having a hard time getting this to work. For one, i updated and bought the 2020 edition and for some reason it will not recognize this so i have to email someone to resolve this. Second, when i click on the code, it does not go to the detailed information. I have reinstalled software and logged in and out. ADA NEEDS TO GO BACK TO PDF for digital format. Much easier to deal with.

### 5/5 — Easy

*2018-10-11*

So much easier than flipping through the book, you can use on multiple devices and the yearly fee is much cheaper than buying the book every year

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2018-10-06*

They only have like a dozen total codes. That’s like 500 codes missing. What a lazy and half baked product.

### 5/5 — Can’t work without

*2018-06-26*

I do not refer to this app everyday, but I need to look up definitions and to be current with yearly CDT code changes. I was excited when ADA CDT code app first came out. It means knowledge at my fingertips wherever I am. I am sorry to hear that someone else was offended for having to pay for a yearly subscription. It’s a few dollars and ADA gives member discount on the app, among other benefits of being an ADA member dentist. For me, this app is worth the price to pay. A live human being (or a few) has got to be behind all the amount of effort and time, making and maintaining this app. Their time need to be compensated. I only wish we have an app for this messy medical codes.

### 1/5 — Hygienists can't use it

*2017-03-25*

You have to sign in with your ADA username and password. Which means as a hygienist I can't use this app. I submit all my own charges to insurance don't you think I should have access to these codes as well through the app?

### 1/5 — Cdt 2016

*2016-04-24*

It shouldn't require login and password every time. It should have at least save the username to save some time on logging in. I can use my bank app faster than this.

### 1/5 — Horrendous

*2016-03-18*

Why is it that perhaps the most useful information that we could have as dentists requires us to pay more money? What do ADA dues even cover?  This is an app that should be available to every ADA member.

### 1/5 — Time waster

*2016-01-06*

Horribly written app not worth the time to load it. Crashes, takes forever to load and forces log in each and every time it's opened.

### 1/5 — Accessible for Administration staff

*2015-12-09*

This app needs to be accessible to administration staff as the do most of the coding not the Dentist.
Need to have login besides ADA MEMBERS
