After careful consideration, the ADA has made the decision to pause its annual meeting, apart from the House of Delegates, until further notice. This decision follows both a change to the ADA Bylaws that no longer requires the Association to hold an annual scientific session, and the ongoing Governance and Organizational Health Evaluation.
While the annual meeting is being paused, the ADA remains committed to advancing the dental profession through education, collaboration and connection. As national and regional meetings continue to evolve, we recognize the important role state and local dental associations play in providing high-quality continuing education and opportunities for professional connection. We will continue to work with our state and local partners and explore new opportunities to engage members, the broader dental community and industry stakeholders in ways that support the evolving needs of the profession.
Please visit ADA.org/ce for upcoming continuing education opportunities. For questions or concerns, contact the ADA Member Service Center at 312.440.2500, weekdays from 7 a.m.–6 p.m. CT, or reach us via email or chat.
House of Delegates
The ADA House of Delegates will continue to meet in person annually, maintaining an important opportunity for delegates to conduct the Association’s governance and policymaking business face to face.
The House of Delegates will take place Oct. 29–Nov. 1, 2027, in Denver. Additional information can be found on the House of Delegates page.
