Legislative Issues
Dentistry is constantly changing. Legislation, regulation, and
other public policy initiatives play
an important role in shaping the course
and the future of dentistry. The American Dental Association
is in Washington, D. C. to promote
the public’s oral health and the interests of dental students
and dentists. The Department of State
Government Affairs, located at ADA’s Chicago Headquarters,
assists state and local dental societies
with state legislation and regulations.
As long as the ADA represents an overwhelming
majority of the dental professionals in this country, it will
continue to be an important presence in Washington,
speaking directly to leaders who are
shaping legislative issues. Make
sure your voice is heard; keep up-to-date
with these issues. With your help, the
ADA can help protect the future of
dentistry. For more information about
current ADA initiatives, visit www.ada.org/goto/advocacy.
