Introduction

The program is accredited by the American Dental Association’s Commission on Dental Accreditation Complaints. Complaints with the Commission can be made by writing or calling the ADA Commission on Dental Accreditation:

The Commission on Dental Accreditation will review complaints that relate to a program’s compliance with the accreditation standards. The Commission is interested in the sustained quality and continued improvement of dental-related education programs but does not intervene on behalf of individuals or act as a court of appeal for individuals in matters of admission, appointment, promotion or dismissal of faculty, staff or students.

A copy of the appropriate accreditation standards and/or the Commission’s policy and procedure for submission of complaints may be obtained by contacting the Commission at 211 East Chicago Avenue, Chicago, IL 60611-2678 or by calling 312-440.4653. The Commission’s web address is: http://www.ada.org/100.aspx

The above Complaints Notice is also posted in select locations of the University of Maryland Dental School and on the school’s website.
