Please note that the Contract Analysis Service is intended to be a tool in helping you to understand the proposed contract, but it not intended to be constituted as legal advice.

The ADA only accepts those requests made through state constituent dental societies, and contracts must be sent as a separate attachment via email. 18 JU LY/AU GU ST 2019 | P EN N S YLVA N IA D EN TA L J O UR N A L
