iADS is teaming up with Dr. Paul Rosen, an internationally-known periodontist and researcher. iADS promotes evidence-based practice and welcomes input from researchers worldwide to help members stay on the leading edge of dental specialty practice.
Mission Statement:
Our goal is to provide a vehicle by which dental specialists, who have exceptionally high skills gained through their advanced training, can provide input into the future scope and direction of dental care/therapy. These clinicians may lack access to academic institutions and the traditional routes of research due to being non-affiliated. However, they will be able to participate and provide input through emerging research options such as network-based affiliations.
Why Us:
We are a group of specialists who are committed to advancing the science of dentistry. We are not corporately affiliated in a manner that prohibits us from providing network-based research. The group is spearheaded by a specialist private practitioner with over 30 years of experience in teaching, lecturing, private practice, and in-office research who has published over 50 articles and has been recognized by his peers as having exceptional skill and interest in advancing the care of patients by being awarded the Master Clinician Award by the American Academy of Periodontology. As we have no academic institution affiliation, the cost for us to do research can be kept to a lower price point without sacrificing quality. Research endeavors are moving toward network-based endeavors in private practice settings.
