"THROUGH THE EYES OF THE MASTERS" DVD SERIES
A meeting of twenty exceptional individuals, who signified their interest in a gathering of restorative dentists, was called to order by Dr. T.W. Maves on January 25, 1928, at the Drake Hotel in Chicago, Illinois. Dr. Maves outlined the meeting’s purpose and expressed the desire for those present to feel the need to organize. Such assurance was given by several and seconded by all. Officers were elected and the new organization was then named “The American Academy of Restorative Dentistry.” An Academy Council was then formed, dues were established, and the first Academy meeting adjourned.
 
From humble beginnings, then continuing through a rich history of profession-wide distinction, the American Academy of Restorative Dentistry is today known across the globe for excellence in membership and achievement. On behalf of the Academy, thank you for your interest.
 
Since 1928, the Academy has been dedicated to the advancement of the art, science, and education in restorative dentistry. An annual two-day meeting is conducted in Chicago, devoted to the exchange of clinical, laboratory, and scientific information by means of essays, projected clinics, and table clinics. The most respected practitioners and scientists in the profession participate. Personal interactions fostered by camaraderie of members and guests from the world over abound.
 
Since 1954, headed by Dr. Ernest Granger, the Academy’s Committee on Scientific Investigation contributes to the body of professional literature with publication of the “Annual review of selected scientific literature: A report of the Committee on Scientific Investigation of the American Academy of Restorative Dentistry” in the Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry. Additionally, significant continuing education contributions regularly emerge from the Academy’s "Thru the Eyes of The Masters" audiovisual series listed on this website. To teach by example, as is done with these works, has always been a fundamental objective of the Academy.
 
We continuously endeavored to identify gifts possessed and share those gifts to positively influence the profession across the country and around the world. A remarkable and talented membership offers a wealth of professional information and experiences to benefit both professionals and patients. This, combined with outstanding annual meetings, makes for the truly remarkable organization that is the American Academy of Restorative Dentistry.
 
​Thank you for taking time to visit our website and your interest in our Academy!
 
Sincerely,
David R Cagna, DDS, MS
