ADIA Vision
An industry that empowers oral health professionals to advance the health and well-being of all Australians.
ADIA Values
Respect -
Respect is a two way street. If you want it, you've got to give it.
Integrity -
Integrity is doing the right thing even when no one is watching.
Professionalism -
It's not the job you do, it's how you do the job. The strength of the team is the individual, and the strength of the individual is the team.
The high level of support and engagement that ADIA enjoys from the industry member businesses supply more than 95% of the dental products supplies in Australia provides it with the resources to deliver a comprehensive range of services that allow member businesses to grow, create jobs and operate sustainably. The support from industry also places ADIA in a leadership position where parliamentary and departmental stakeholders look to ADIA as a source of authoritative advice and guidance on matters of policy.
ADIA's greatest asset is its members, the businesses who allow their employees to volunteer and serve on the ADIA Board, national committees, state branches and special interest groups. This contribution, when coupled with the expertise and leadership provided by ADIA staff, is what has contributed to ADIA's long-term growth and knowledge capacity to support not only its members, but the broader dental industry.
Key affiliations include the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (AusChamber), the association of International Dental Manufacturers (IDM) plus the Australian Made Campaign in addition to the American Chamber of Commerce In Australia (AmCham) and the Australia China Business Council (ACBC).
