About NIFDE

NIFDE (National Institute for Dental Excellence & Integrity) is a prominent, national membership organization with the primary objective of advancing the relationship between dental professionals and patients across the country and to recognize those dentists and dental facilities that have demonstrated a commitment to building patient relationships.


NIFDE completes its objective by taking the following steps:

  • First, NIFDE requires that its members adhere to NIFDE standards which were designed to provide a positive patient experience and to build strong patient relationships. NIFDE accomplishes this task thru the NIFDE Certification Process.

  • Second, thru its Employer Network, NIFDE promotes NIFDE Certification and its many benefits, at the same time promoting the importance of visiting the dentist regularly, to hundreds of thousands of patients across the country.

  • Third, NIFDE provides NIFDE Certified dentists with the NIFDE Award, which is sure to grab the attention of your patients, both new and existing. The NIFDE Award stands a foot tall with your name on it, and is meticulously hand crafted by the same organization that makes the Oscar and the Emmy.


The end result is:

Hundreds of thousands of prospective patients across the country and their respective families can seek care from those dentists and dental facilities that have achieved NIFDE Certification because those patients have come to recognize, respect and admire NIFDE Certification.

NIFDE Certified dentists see an increase in their case acceptance from both new and existing patients, thereby furthering the success of their dental facilities.
