If you are concerned about the cost of a procedure recommended to you by your dentist, ask the dentist's office if they can make provisions for a schedule of payments. If a dentist is a GDA member, they have chosen to belong to their professional association. By joining, a member dentist not only holds membership in the Georgia Dental Association, but in the American Dental Association, and in their local district dental society.
Membership requires that a dentist adhere to certain standards of ethical behavior.
The GDA motto is to promote and provide the highest quality of service and care to the patients of Georgia. Many GDA member dentists work diligently behind the scenes at the state Capitol advocating for and protecting your rights as a patient through GDA programs.
