Las Vegas — Ted Sherwin, D.D.S, ran unopposed for ADA treasurer and was re-elected Oct. 13 for a second three-year term by the 2021 House of Delegates.

The Virginia dentist said the treasurer works with the ADA professional team, designs a budgetary process and oversees the finances of the Association, as well as advises on and communicates financial matters to the Board and House.
“I really enjoy my work, particularly from the strategic sense of ensuring that the finances of the Association are adequate to the task of meeting our needs today and well into our future. My goals are [to] successfully implement the strategic plan through the budget process, maintaining the trust in our financial systems through effective communication, transparency and accuracy, and providing appropriate leadership in the financial life of the Association."
The ADA community can be proud of how well the Association has served the profession and the public through the COVID-19 pandemic, he said.
“Financially the ADA did a stellar job of managing assets and funding core activities during the crisis,” he said. “This year we are seeing a strong financial recovery.”
