From Ascribe Newsfeed: The Associations Advance America Awards program has named the American Dental Association (ADA) to its 2008 Honor Roll, a national awards competition for innovative projects sponsored by the American Society of Association Executives & The Center for Association Leadership, Washington, D.C. It focuses on improving and maintaining good oral health for older adults throughout their lives. The oral health initiative includes providing older adults, their families, caregivers and dental professionals with education and other free resources to increase the awareness of and need for better oral health. It is an honor and an inspiration to showcase this activity as an example of the many contributions that associations are making to advance American society," said AAA's Committee Chair Matthew D'Uva, CAE, president of SOCAP International. The premier source of oral health information, the ADA has advocated for the public's health and promoted the art and science of dentistry since 1859. The ADA's state-of-the-art research facilities develop and test dental products and materials that have advanced the practice of dentistry and made the patient experience more positive. The ADA Seal of Acceptance long has been a valuable and respected guide to consumer and professional products.
