The LDA works with dentists, legislators, and dentistry advocates to make positive change in dental legislation at the LA State Capitol each year.

Here's a brief update from Dr. Jorge Rodriguez (NODA) on our wins with Medicaid funding during this legislative session!

You've learned a lot in the past 10 years; why not share those lessons with an LSUSD student? Join the LDA's Dentist Directory for Students to mentor with the flexibility that you need while providing insights that our dental students need! More information available in the "Dental Student Resources" section of our website.

Dental assistants, do y'all have three days to spare this Summer? Why not spend those days boosting your clinical skills AND your earning potential?

The Expanded Duty Dental Assistant (EDDA) certification is the next step for dental assistants who want to expand their capabilities to perform expanded duty dental assisting functions as specified by Louisiana law. An approved EDDA course (like the one we offer!) is one part of what you'll need to apply for the certification. The other two parts are:

✅ An accepted BLS course
✅ An approved radiographics course (We offer one!)

Course Pricing
LDA Member's Assistant: $699
Non-Member's Assistant: $899

SBET grants are available!

Are y'all as tired of this heat as we are? 🥵 Let's pretend its 20 degrees cooler and kick off the Fall season with a LIVE VIA ZOOM LDA C.E. Course on August 28!

Take this course from anywhere: Your local coffee shop with an Autumn-themed latte, at your practice before your afternoon patients arrive, or at home in your fuzzy socks! It's up to you.

Regardless, these 3 live, clinical C.E. hours will count toward your in-person hours required by the LA State Board of Dentistry.
