Eighth District Dental Society
The Five W's
What
We are the Eighth District Dental Society of the Pennsylvania Dental
Association (PDA). Inclusive in the district is the
Clarion–Jefferson Counties Dental Society. We are an alliance
of dentists working to promote better dentistry for more people in our
rural environment.
Where
We are the largest of PDA’s districts in the state, by area, that
is. We include Jefferson, Clarion, Forest, Warren, McKean, Cameron, Elk
and Potter counties. It is probable that we have more deer than people!

Why
The Eighth District exists to support dentists and patients in the
geographic area we serve. The board members and officers volunteer many
hours of their time to further the aims and achieve the goals of the
dental profession. They do this for members and non-members alike. We
may be small in number, but the quality of our leaders speaks for
itself. We are constantly seeking additional involvement from our
members and striving to bring new dentists into our organization.
When
The Eighth District has spring and fall general membership meetings
consisting, normally, of a morning continuing education class and a
lunchtime business session.
The Board of Directors meets quarterly with the council and committee
representatives. These meetings are open to all members and guests.
Additional continuing education courses are offered throughout the
year.
