AADE Membership
The American Association of Dental Examiners is a national association
that encourages the highest standards of dental education, promotes higher
and uniform standards of qualifications for dental practitioners, and
advocates uniform methods in the conduct, operation and working of dental
examining boards.
Membership is comprised of boards of dentistry, specialty boards
(recognized by the American Dental Association), present and past members
of those boards, board administrators, board attorneys, and dental and
dental hygiene educators.
Two important goals of the AADE are the sharing of information among
its memberships and developing collaborative relationships between
examiners and educators.
