Special Care Dentistry Association

Special Care Dentistry Association (SCDA) is a unique international organization of oral health professionals and other individuals who are dedicated to promoting oral health and well-being for people with special needs.

SCDA is proud to bring together professionals from the Council of Hospital Dentistry, the Council of Dentistry for People with Disabilities, and the Council of Geriatric Dentistry.

Because many of the goals and activities of these three practice areas overlap, the component groups joined forces and formed SCDA. By fully integrating these groups, SCDA benefits its members – and the patients they serve – by having a united leadership and a single mission.

Members include dentists, dental hygienists and assistants, non-dental healthcare providers, health program administrators, residents, students and hospitals.

The SCDA Events app is only for attendees of these events - login credentials for each event will be provided by the event organizers.
