What are the ADA Sample Items?

The ADA Sample Items are a free resource offered by the American Dental Association (ADA), the makers of the DAT. They are meant to give you an idea of the types of problems you may encounter on your DAT.

We recommend that all students review these Sample Items as well as the other ADA test preparation materials as part of your study. You can find the ADA Sample Items here:

Note: This is a free resource provided by the ADA and is NOT a product of Erudition.

What do our PAT explanations give you?

Our PAT explanations help maximize the usefulness of the ADA Sample Items as a study resource. We provide detailed explanations for all the problems, including rotating 3D models for all keyhole and top-front-end problems, as well as clear 2D and 3D graphics for all perceptual ability problem types. Our explanations allow you to fully understand the objects and items created by the actual DAT test creators.
