Welcome to the San Antonio District Dental Society (SADDS)


Established in 1913, the San Antonio District Dental Society (SADDS) has been at the forefront of promoting dental excellence, ethics, advocacy, and education for over a century. With more than nine hundred members and supporters across fourteen counties, SADDS is the premier resource for the dental profession in the region. Our diverse membership includes dental professionals from various specialties, ensuring comprehensive access to top-tier dental care.

While we are committed to supporting the dental community, SADDS is not a dental clinic and does not handle dental emergencies. If you need dental care, we encourage you to visit the American Dental Association’s (ADA) "Find-a-Dentist" tool or refer to our Specialist and General Dentist Directory for assistance in finding a qualified provider.

We believe in the power of education, which is why we offer a wide range of programs and events designed to advance oral health. From continuing education courses for dental professionals to supporting advancements in the field, SADDS is committed to promoting high standards and quality care.

Choosing a dentist who is a member of professional organizations like the American Dental Association (ADA), Texas Dental Association (TDA), or San Antonio District Dental Society (SADDS) provides many benefits. These organizations require members to uphold strict standards of practice and ethics, ensuring the highest quality of dental care. Additionally, member dentists stay updated with the latest advancements and technologies in dentistry, providing access to the most effective and innovative treatment options. By selecting a SADDS member dentist, you can trust that you are receiving exceptional care from a highly qualified and dedicated professional.
