Caring for Generations.
Advancing the Future of Dentistry.
We combine expert clinical care with groundbreaking research to set a new standard in patient-first dentistry.
For more than a century, ADA Forsyth has stood at the intersection of science and care.
Our clinic continues that legacy—blending world-class research with patient-first dentistry to serve our neighbors, families, and the next generation with integrity and heart.
A Boston legacy of caring for generations
When you visit ADA FFA, you join a proud tradition more than a century in the making. Since opening its doors in 1914 as one of the nation’s first pediatric dental hospitals, ADA Forsyth has cared for generations of Boston’s families.
In the early days, buses brought kids to the clinic for treatment and dental education, laying the foundation for a community-centered approach that still guides us today.
That mission lives on through our ForsythKids mobile dental program, which brings compassionate, expert care directly to children where they live and learn.
A culture of excellence
As part of the world’s leading oral health research institute, ADA Forsyth is the flagship research arm of the American Dental Association (ADA), and primary testing site for the trusted ADA Seal of Acceptance program that ensures the safety and effectiveness of dental products.
Our patients benefit from expert care informed by groundbreaking research and backed by clinical evidence—right where the future of oral health is being shaped every day.
