The Connecticut Society of Pediatric Dentistry is a mission driven organization that serves to organize pediatric dentists in the state of Connecticut. Our mission to serve the infants, children, adolescents and persons with special health care needs is accomplished in having a strong organization that shapes oral health in Connecticut. Our leadership works with the state and federal government while collaborating with local and national dental societies to achieve the best oral health possible for the Connecticut pediatric population.
The board of the CSPD has meetings four times a year, and always welcomes new members. The board serves to drive the mission of the organization, while also voluntarily serving to govern the organization.
Two state meetings are held every year, a spring and fall gathering with national and local speakers on relevant issues to a pediatric dental practice.
