Journal of the ADA Overview
No other journal has such wide appeal
Authoritative. Relevant. Dentistry's leading source in practice and science. The Journal of the American Dental Association. It's the flagship of ADA publications — the one dentists turn to when they need to know what's really going on in their profession.
Since its premiere in 1913, JADA has cornered the market in dental science publishing. No other journal commands the same respect. No other journal has such wide appeal.
JADA is the "must-read" publication for the practicing dentist, the dental researcher, the dental educator. It's the best-read journal in dentistry!*
