About Us

The Missouri Dental Association is a non-profit, professional organization with more than 2,200 members statewide, representing all areas of dentistry.

What is the MDA

Founded in 1865, the MDA is a unified organization of individual members committed to the highest quality of care for the public and a resource for advocacy, education, communication, information and fellowship.

The MDA is a state component of a tripartite association where members belong to the American Dental Association and their local component society.  

The Association is governed by a 16-member board and has eight executive office staff to serve our members.
