An Improved Way To Stay Connected with ASTDD

September 25, 2026

As part of our ongoing efforts to improve member communications, ASTDD is making an important change to how we share information and keep our members connected.

Following the recent technical issues with our listservs, we have decided to retire our current listserv system effective immediately and transition to a more streamlined and reliable communications platform. This means that all listservs will no longer work.

You’ll continue to receive familiar communications like the Weekly Digest, along with news alerts and timely updates. Our new platform will also allow us to deliver more targeted communications to specific member audiences, helping ensure that the information you receive is relevant to your role, interests, and involvement with ASTDD.

Our goal is simple: less noise, more relevance, and a better way to stay connected to ASTDD and each other.

We recognize that our listservs historically have provided an important way
for members to exchange information, ask questions, and connect with colleagues. As part of our ongoing efforts to enhance the member experience, we are developing a new member resource that will provide more opportunities for collaboration, knowledge sharing, and engagement across our community. Keeping those connections strong, and creating new ways for meaningful exchange, remain a priority for ASTDD. We look forward to sharing more details later this year, with an anticipated launch in early January 2027!

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we implement and refine our upgraded communications over the coming weeks. If you have questions, need assistance, or have information you would like to share with ASTDD members, please contact Matt Zaborowski, Executive Director, at mzaborowski@astdd.org.

Thank you for your continued engagement and for being part of the ASTDD community! You make ASTDD the place where oral health lives.
