The Origins of the WWAED
The inaugural meeting of the WWAED was held in Lincoln, Nebraska in 1991 to formulate a cohesive body of professional horse dentists, who could provide the highest level of care and treatment and advanced dental procedures. 

The WWAED pioneered three main areas of professional development; A Testing Procedure, A Code of Conduct and the first written Standard of Practice. The WWAED in the past decade, through a self-disciplined approach, has ensured that the Standard of Practice and the Code of Conduct have been revised and restructured as necessary. This is to ensure that the WWAED members are committed to provide the highest level of professional care to the horses while offering the best possible service to the client. 

Membership of this organization is a privilege and not a right of an individual.
 

Association Membership
If an individual wishes to join the WWAED they can join as a Probationary member. All Probationary members must take the WWAED entrance examination within the first two years. This two year period is to allow members to understand the level that is required and to benefit from any training, if required, to achieve the entrance exam level. If a Probationary member fails the entrance examination then they will not be accepted into the association.
