ADA News launches Instagram account

Follow, share to enter a chance to win $100 gift card

The ADA News on Thursday launched an Instagram account in an effort to help dental professionals stay up to date on dental news and information through the popular photo sharing app — just in time for SmileCon.

Through visual storytelling, photos and videos, the account, @TheADANews, allows the official newspaper of the American Dental Association to connect readers and Instagram users to timely information on scientific, social, political and economic developments affecting dentistry and health care.

The launch comes just days before SmileCon, scheduled for Oct. 11-13 at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas. Those who follow @TheADANews will see some of the highlights as ADA News staff cover the ADA’s reimagined annual meeting. These include the opening and closing sessions, thought-provoking continuing education courses and fun activities throughout the event.

To celebrate the unveiling of @TheADANews, followers and those who tag two of their friends in the comment section will be entered for a chance to win a $100 gift card. A winner will be selected Oct. 18.
