The NDDA's strives to build member value by focusing on the following four solutions:
1. Improve dental Medicaid with adequate funding, reduced administrative burden, and vigorous dentist recruitment.
2. Maximize the current dental hygiene and assistant workforce through expanded training programs, community outreach, and case management to connect more high-risk patients to a dental home.
3. Expand and support non-profit safety-net clinics through public-private grant partnerships and dentist loan repayment programs.
4. Engage with tribal communities to improve Indian Health Service dentistry, maximize prevention, reduce credentialing barriers, and facilitate contracting with the local dental community.

The NDDA also offers numerous other benefits for added member value.
