Members may submit a contract to their state or local dental societies who will forward it to the Service, and the Service will provide a plain language explanation of contract terms of each agreement analyzed. The Service does not provide legal advice or recommend whether a contract should or should not be signed. The analysis will be subsequently sent to the member at no charge. (Members may send a contract directly to the Service but will be charged a fee of $50 for each contract analyzed.)

When 24 women dentists from different backgrounds gathered together, they were asked one big question: How can the ADA do more to support you? From there, the ADA Accelerator Series was born. Created hand-in-hand with you and experts in wellness, business, and more, these webinars, articles, and resources are just the start of bigger things on the horizon. The ADA Accelerator Series is your hub for financial, leadership, and work/life balance tools to help you tackle current challenges and achieve your long-term goals. We're reimagining tomorrow, together.
