About The Program

Maine Dental Association (MDA) established the Preferred Business Partners Program in 2018. The program was designed as a program that gives greater visibility and recognition to top-performing partners who deliver exceptional services for our members. Designed with membership in mind, we are pairing them with companies who can help them provide quality products and services to their business, employee and patients.

Being an MDA Preferred Business Partner is an effective way to market your company’s products and services by interacting directly with Maine’s dental offices. This program allows you to attract, retain and provides growth opportunities for your organization’s most valuable asset, your relationships with Maine dentists.

The landscape in dentistry is always evolving. This is also true of practices, their teams, and their expectations. Staying connected to the current oral health workforce provide you with the edge you need to stay ahead in this industry. We want to partner with you to promote your business while connecting with our membership with business that share our values and purpose.
