ing modifiers link to the subject after the comma- in this case, the correct and logical subject would be 'the American Dental Association'
C, D, & E are out
let's compare the remaining answer choices side by side
A. the American Dental Association is to spend $45 million over the next seven years promoting good dental hygiene
B. the American Dental Association will spend $45 million over the next seven years to promote good dental hygiene
the main difference is in verb tense - will vs is to.
in this case, we want to say that association will spend in future so correct answer choice would be B
correct me if I am wrong
hope it will be helpful.

OFFICIAL EXPLANATION
ANSWER: B
“the American Dental Association” is the subject of the introductory phrase “Seeking to decrease the incidence of tooth decay,” so it should come immediately after that phrase; C, D, and E incorrectly place other phrases between the introductory phrase and its subject. D and E also unnecessarily use passive verb constructions. The construction “is to spend . . . promoting” in A is less idiomatic and forceful than “will spend . . . to promote” in B, because, in general, use of a declarative active verb is more forceful than use of a “to be” verb, and infinitives are generally more forceful than gerunds. B is the best answer.
