The ASDA was founded in 1976 to promote and educate dentists and the public about the life-changing effects of aesthetic dentistry.

Dr. Byoung Suh received the ASDA Lifetime Achievement Award for his contributions to adhesive dentistry at the 2022 International Conference on Aesthetic Dentistry, which was held October 19-22, 2022, at the Renaissance Esmeralda Resort & Spa in Indian Wells, California. He developed the first American made dentin bonding agent that was proven to be safe and effective. He changed the lives of millions of patients who could successfully have composite restorations bonded to their dentin and root surfaces.

This system has been used by over 100,000 dentists in 70 countries and has produced over 200 research publications. It has since become the industry standard against which all new bonding materials are compared.

His research significantly contributed to the popularization of the “total-etch” and “wet-bonding” concepts.

In 2012, he introduced the first single bottle universal dentin bonding agent. His latest developments include the Thera family of calcium releasing products.

Dr. Suh has become a well-known and sought-after lecturer and teacher throughout the world. Besides lecturing extensively in the US and Canada, he has traveled to over 40 countries and has given more than 250 lectures and presentations at various dental associations, universities, and dental research conventions. Dr. Suh has also authored or co-authored over 150 articles and abstracts and has completed a tremendous amount of research on bonding. Many of his research articles have become required reading for undergraduate and postgraduate dental school programs.

He published his book, Principles of Adhesion Dentistry, in February 2013.

The American Society for Dental Aesthetics is proud to present the Lifetime Achievement Award to Dr. Byoung Suh for his contributions to adhesive dentistry.
