American Dental Association
As the nation’s largest dental association, the ADA has promoted the art and science of dentistry since 1859. The ADA powers the dental profession by providing its member dentists with resources and services that empower them to be their best. The ADA is also a trusted source of oral health information that shapes everything from health policy to clinical care.
In its public health advocacy, the Association has amplified dentistry’s voice on issues affecting the nation’s wellbeing, including health equity, oral cancer, and the opioids crisis. The ADA Seal of Acceptance long has been a universally respected guide to consumer dental care products, and it’s one of the many ways that the ADA helps patients stay healthy in the dental chair and with daily at-home care. Additionally, The Journal of the American Dental Association, is the best-read scientific journal in dentistry.
Alongside its more than 162,000 members, the ADA staff is working toward a vision of achieving optimal health.
