The American Dental Association (ADA)
The American Dental Association (ADA) exists to empower the profession of dentistry and to assist it's members in advancing the overall oral health of their patients. Together with over 163,000 members, they have been driving dentistry forward for 160 years. The ADA is also a strong advocate for public health – fighting oral cancer and combating the opioids crisis – and they are teaming up with industry partners to help patients stay healthy from the dental chair to daily care at home.
The Florida Dental Association (FDA)
The Florida Dental Association (FDA) is a state constituent of the American Dental Association (ADA), which represents dentists throughout the country. Florida has six district dental associations that represent the interests and activities of dentists in those areas. Each district association is comprised of affiliate (local) societies that have separate membership policies and programs, but typically work in conjunction with their district dental associations. As such, they function as what is called a tripartite (three-part organization). By joining one level, doctors get the benefits of all of them — the “Power of Three,” which underscores the mission of the ADA, FDA and its district associations to “help members succeed” by delivering programs, services, continuing education and advocacy to maximize value and service on every level.

The Southern Academy of Prosthodontics Award
Essay contests were held for senior dental students beginning in the early 1970’s. This was later changed to the awarding of a plaque to the outstanding senior dental student in the area of prosthetics from each of the Schools of Dentistry within the Academy’s geographic borders. This award continues today supporting excellence in prosthetics. To receive this award is acknowledgement of a student being the best in not only his class, but in all classes, in all schools within the area.
The American Academy of Implant Dentistry Award
As the leading organization in implant dentistry, the American Academy of Implant Dentistry is the home of the leaders in the profession. The Academy and its Foundation have recognized the accomplishments of clinicians, researchers, students, and volunteers in the field of implant dentistry through various awards.
