Welcome to the Newfoundland and Labrador Dental Assistants Association's website


Dental Assistants Week is approaching, Mar 4-10, 2012 and it is my pleasure as your President to send special greetings to each and everyone during this special time that has been set aside to recognize our achievements. This week has been designated by the Canadian Dental Assistants Association, the American Dental Assistants Association, the Canadian Dental Association and the American Dental Association as the perfect time to acknowledge and recognize the versatile, multitalented member of the dental team – the Dental Assistant.

During this week that honors our members, I hope that you recognize the wonderful contributions that you make to your dental practice and to your patients. As well, please recognize your co-workers and fellow dental assistants who make each workday rewarding. Mutual recognition of each other’s contributions can go along way. Who knows the joys and struggles of dental assisting better than another Dental Assistant. Make this week an opportunity to celebrate with your co-workers and in particular the chance to show your appreciation to all Dental Assistants.

Please enjoy the events that are being offered by your Association. The NLDAA is committed to advancing the career of dental assisting and enhancing the profession through education, legislation, credentialing and professional activities. Members of NLDAA help promote dentistry and offer support to communities with oral health education programs and charitable efforts. We have a multitude of efforts and talents to celebrate. Be proud to share the information with your employer and the other members of the dental team.

Information for upcoming events will be sent out by email to all members and we encourage you to register early for the events you wish to attend. If you are living outside the St. John's area, please contact me if you wish to organize an event in your local area. Hope to see you all!!!

Sincerely,
Vera Walsh, CDA II
NLDAA President
