Press Room
Press Guidelines
Media representatives must provide identification before receiving a session press pass (e.g. business card, letter of assignment and published samples of editorial/news work). ADA Media Relations reserves the right to limit the number of press badges issued to a media organization.
- Registration fees for working press are waived. Media Relations staff considers working press to be editorial staff of newspapers, magazines, medical and health care publications, broadcast outlets or Web-based media.
- A press badge allows media to attend news briefings, sessions and seminars. It must be obtained before attending news briefings, sessions and seminars be worn at all times
- Media may attend ticketed events depending on space. Ticket holders have priority for seating.
- ADA Media Relations staff must escort and accompany broadcast reporters to their intended interview or "shoot" on-site.
- Exhibitors are not ADA spokespersons and should not be identified as such in an interview.
- Exhibitors who wish to distribute materials for the media may do so at their booths. There is also a limited amount of table space for press kits in the Product Briefing Room area of the ADA Press Office.
- Any Press Office registrant, who sells, markets or represents a company for the purpose of obtaining advertising or subscriptions from any registrant or exhibitor immediately forfeits press credentials.
- Use of the Press Office is limited to those who are registered as media and to those ADA meeting participants who are invited by a reporter for an interview or are scheduled to participate in a press briefing.
We appreciate your interest in the oral health topics presented at our Annual Session and look forward to your coverage of them.
