O

pen to all licensed U.S. dentists, JADA’s monthly Continuing Education Program now offers Journal readers a chance to earn up to four (4) CE credits each month—double the previous total. Four articles in each issue of JADA are designated as CE vehicles, identified with our CE logo. Read one or more of the articles and answer the related questions in this section. If you correctly answer three of the four questions per article, you now earn one (1) hour of CE credit per article— or a total of four (4) credit hours for all four articles. This is effective as of March 2013 for all active CE tests (in other words, the current month and the previous 11 months). The University of Colorado is an ADA Continuing Education Recognition Program (CERP) Recognized Provider. ADA CERP is a service of the American Dental Association to assist dental professionals in identifying quality providers of continuing dental education. ADA CERP does not approve or endorse individual courses or instructors, nor does it imply acceptance of credit hours by boards of dentistry. Concerns or complaints about a CE provider may be directed to the provider or to ADA CERP at www/ada.org/cerp. Record your answers on the form provided at the end of this section, clip the completed form and attach your address label from this issue of JADA. Mail the form and the appropriate fee to the UC School of Dental Medicine. You will be notified by mail of your score and the credits awarded—information that you must forward to your state dental board. You also can participate in JADA’s CE program online. Visit www.ada.org/jadace. For ADA-member dentists, the monthly participation fee is $15; the nonmember fee is $20. You may pay by check drawn on a U.S. bank, money order or credit card. The fee is the same whether you answer questions for one article or for all four. Credit for the CE program expires one year from the date of publication (both print and online). Duplicate submissions will be disregarded, whether electronic or paper. Credits issued for participation in the CE activity may not apply toward license renewal in all licensing jurisdictions. It is the responsibility of each participant to verify the CE requirements of his or her licensing or regulatory agency. This is effective as of March 2013 for all active CE tests (in other words, the current month and the previous 11 months). Any questions? Call 1-800-736-1911.
