Abstract
MDA membership offers significant financial leverage by negotiating programs that return money to dental practices. In 2025, practices utilizing endorsed vendors realized potential annual savings exceeding $50,000. Highlighted services include MEDVA, which provides virtual assistants to reduce salary expenses by over 60%, and PPO Negotiation Solutions, which has increased some practices' collections significantly. Members also benefit from discounts on dental supplies (TDSC.com), accounting services, and precious metal refining. Furthermore, Bridge Commercial Realty assists with real estate transitions, offering fee discounts and free appraisals. Collectively, these endorsed programs are designed to offset membership dues and strengthen a practice's financial health.
