Founded in 1887, the Arkansas State Dental Association is a non-profit membership organization of Arkansas dentists and part of a tripartite system with the American Dental Association and our five component District Dental Societies.
The Arkansas State Dental Association is dedicated to improving the dental health of the citizens of our state, promoting the art and science of dentistry in all its phases, and maintaining the highest ethical and professional level of dental care statewide.
