1Opinion of the Court

MacKINNON, Senior Circuit Judge:

This private antitrust action challenges the legality of one of the American Academy of Periodontology’s (“AAP” and “Periodontists”) requirements for active membership, specifically the “limited practice requirement”. The plaintiff-appellant is Donald W. Kreuzer, D.M.D., a periodontist who practices in the District of Columbia. The defendant-appellees are the AAP and the American Dental Association (“ADA”). Dr. Kreuzer contends that the limited practice requirement is an unreasonable restraint of trade in violation of Section 1 of the Sherman Antitrust Act. 1
