When you join organized dentistry, you become a member of three remarkable organizations — the American Dental Association (ADA), the Florida Dental Association (FDA) and your local dental association, which along the Atlantic Coast in Florida is the Atlantic Coast District Dental Association (ACDDA).
ACDDA members are a growing group of professionals who serve the Atlantic Coast area including the counties of: Indian River, Martin, St. Lucie, Okeechobee, Palm Beach and Broward (North Broward). ACDDA is comprised of three affiliate (local) societies, each with their own executive boards and programs. Affiliate membership is included with ADA/FDA/ACDDA dues.
The Power of Three initiative underscores the mission of the ADA, the FDA and its component dental associations to help all members succeed by delivering programs, services and advocacy for members while working collaboratively to maximize value and service, regardless of where the experience occurs for a member.
