Anyone else getting destroyed by CDCP pre-auth denials? Built a tool that generates the letter and flags gaps before you submit — giving away free access (for 1 month) to 10 clinics to stress test it!

*Update: Due to the large demand and how much this could help patients & practices, I’ve decided to continue offering free trials to anyone that’s interested. More the merrier!

Hi everyone! I could really use some help.

Im a foreign dentist who's going through to NDECC soon.

There are NO stock of endo teeth 700 series replacement anywhere, and i seriously need them to train.

It's so frustrating that even after doing my best and training hard for months, there are still some complications that I cannot do anything about.

Does anyone have any left? Or does anyone know anyone who might have? Even 1.

I will gladly pay.

Thanks everyone!

so i'm a first year student at western university (ontario) and im currently in med sci but switching majors. my average this year was absolutely abysmal. i know a lot of dental schools (at least in canada) look at cumulative averages, so even if i were to lock in the next 3 years and get decent grades, do i have a realisitic chance of getting into dental school or am i doomed?

Basically the title. At what point were you confident both clinically and financially that you could start your own practice? Is 2-3 years of experience after graduating enough?

Accidentally deleted my previous post.

I got a patient who placed implants in Turkey and wants a report from a canadian dentist with fee guide codes for the implants placed in Turkey so they can reimburse it. Any body has an experience with that? Any liabitly on us issuing such report?

I left an office where they hired uncertified RDAs and didn’t tell me. I only found out after befriending the RDAs. I’m in Alberta so the RDAs have a larger scope of practice and the responsibility falls under the dentist who is “supervising” them. What’s ridiculous is that one of the hygienists was also unlicensed. Going forward I ask the office managers to show me every RDAs licenses. Just be careful out there as new grad dentists
