ADA offers CDT 2007

July 7th, 2006 · No Comments

Look here ADA.org: Current Dental Terminology (CDT): Products for Individual Users [1] to order the newest CDT coding information.

CDT 2007–2008 Current Dental Terminology—Spiral Bound Book & CD-ROM—Item no. J927 Member price $44.95 Non-member price $67.45
CDT 2007–2008 Current Dental Terminology—Book in a Binder & CD-ROM—Item no. J928 Member price $49.95 Non-member price $74.95
CDT 2007–2008 Current Dental Terminology—Spiral Bound Book—Item no. J924 Member price $34.95 Non-member price $52.45

OK this is great…but. Why is there no CD only version? Why do I need to get a paper book? (Spiral or Bound) In fact why can’t I just get a download, I shouldn’t even have to get a CD. After all this is just data, there is no reason it can’t be distributed over the Internet.
Get with it ADA, Save a tree!
