San Fernando Valley Dental Society

Welcome to the San Fernando Valley Dental Society Web Site. I am the 2013 President, Dr. Nita Dixit.  Our society is one of the largest components of the California Dental Association (CDA) and the American Dental Association (ADA).

The San Fernando Valley Dental Society is also proud to operate our own foundation which provides community oral health services to the underserved, low/no income populations within our jurisdiction.

Our membership boundaries extend from the Santa Monica Mountains on the South; as far west as the Ventura County line in the Conejo Valley; East through the entire San Fernando Valley to Eagle Rock and the Los Angeles River; and North through the entire Antelope Valley including Palmdale and Lancaster. The Society has almost 1300 member dentists, offering both general and specialty dental services.

We are the sixth largest component in the State of California and larger than 26 of the 50 state dental associations within the American Dental Association.

In early 2013, the City of Los Angeles' Bureau of Sanitation began wastewater inspections of dental offices.  To help our members better understand and comply with the Wastewater permitting process and what you can expect should an inspector come to your dental practice, we have compiled information which will be helpful to your efforts to understand and comply with the current rules and regulations in existence as of April 2013.

The current inspections are not cite and fine inspections.  The City merely wants to be sure that you are disposing of your wastewater, developer, etc in an approved manner.
