The ADA and ADEX have agreed to add the ADA’s DLOSCE to the ADEX Dental Examination by Aug. 1, 2026. The announcement presents this as a way to modernize licensure, improve patient safety, and make licensure more portable across the many states and jurisdictions that accept or require the ADEX exam.

In this 20-minute video podcast, Dr. Caputo and Executive Director Edmonson discuss how this impacts Arizona and whether the changes represent positive or negative steps for dentistry.

Just wanted to thank all of the CADS new dentists who showed up last night for our social at Culinary Dropout. What a great night! The group was still going strong an hour after the event officially ended.

Big thanks to AzDA Executive Director Dr. Regina Cobb for dropping by and AzDA's team for putting all this together. If you've not been to an AzDA/CADS CE or social, Shana and Michelle meticulously plan every single detail (stuff you'd never think of), so if you're not attending, you're missing out on some first-class events.
