Members of the ADAA who live in California are automatically members of both CDAA and theLocal Society in the area of California in which they live.

 

VISION

The California Dental Assistants Association seeks to inform the public of the invaluable role played by the Dental Assistants in providing their Dental Healthcare.  The California Dental Assistants Association constantly reviews and revises the role and functions of licensed Dental Assistants as dental technologies and techniques change.  The CDAA intent is to ensure that only those Dental Assistants that have demonstrated exceptional education and training are permitted to provide advanced dental services to the public.  All clinical Dental Assistants will have a mandatory credential.  The California Dental Assistants Association is administered by leaders who are committed, qualified individuals.
