Welcome to the CCDA
Collier County Dental Association

The Collier County Dental Association (CCDA) is a professional membership organization representing Florida-licensed dentists and dental specialists practicing throughout Collier County. Founded in 1973 by a dedicated group of dental professionals, the CCDA has built a proud legacy of service to the residents of Collier County. Today, the organization includes nearly 150 members who are committed to providing the highest standard of oral healthcare to their patients.

The CCDA is dedicated to advocating for the dental profession and promoting excellence in patient care. Its members serve as ambassadors for organized dentistry at the local, state, and national levels through active involvement with the Collier County Dental Association, the Florida Dental Association, and the American Dental Association.

A cornerstone of the CCDA's mission is advancing the oral health of the community through education, outreach, and service. The association has played a key role in developing the Lorenzo Walker Technical College Dental Assisting Program, supports the Neighborhood Health Clinic, and previously helped establish and fund the dental hygiene program at Edison Community College. Through these initiatives and its ongoing commitment to community service, the CCDA continues to strengthen access to quality dental care and promote lifelong oral health throughout Collier County.
