Welcome to the Northern Arizona Dental Society
The Northern Arizona Dental Society (NADS) is your regional component of the Arizona Dental Association (AzDA) and the American Dental Association (ADA). As one of AzDA’s three regional societies—alongside Central and Southern Arizona—we serve dentists throughout Northern Arizona by promoting professional excellence, protecting the dental profession, and fostering meaningful connections.
When you join NADS, you're automatically connected to the state (AzDA) and national (ADA) levels—ensuring your voice is part of a unified and powerful network advocating for dentistry at every level.
Our Mission
The Northern Arizona Dental Society provides professional and business assistance to member dentists through relevant and engaging continuing education, by actively creating strong personal connections among dentists, and by sharing vital and timely information with members and the public.
Why NADS?
Dentistry is evolving rapidly. Government regulations and third-party influences continue to grow. The best way to shape the future of the profession—not just react to it—is through organized dentistry.
NADS empowers dentists to:
- Learn & Grow
Access continuing education that’s timely, relevant, and designed with real-world practice in mind. - Connect & Collaborate
Build a strong network of peers who understand your challenges, support your goals, and help elevate one another. - Advocate for the Profession
NADS amplifies your voice—locally and statewide—to protect the integrity of dentistry and improve the oral health landscape in Arizona. - Serve the Community
Through public health initiatives and outreach, NADS supports efforts to improve access to care and educate the public about oral health.
