Thank you to everyone who joined WSDA for an event in support of Patty Kuderer for Washington state insurance commissioner!

"I want the ADA to be a big organization that feels like a small organization, where every voice is heard, valued, and celebrated—where the words 'can't' and 'impossible' have no place."

Having two dentists in the Legislature would help WSDA advance its advocacy efforts, including work on dental benefit reforms and addressing workforce shortages. Read more about two dentists running for election/re-election in 2024 and the importance of dentists serving in Olympia.

Together, we can fortify our advocacy endeavors, shape policies conducive to our profession, and leave a lasting impact on the communities we serve.

As the new dental anesthesia rules take effect and Washington state dentists navigate the complexities of the new regulations, WSDA remains committed to advocating for transparency and accountability at every level of decision-making.

The Washington Oral Health Workforce Tracking Program (WOHW) at the University of Washington invites dental hygienists to share their dental workforce experiences. WSDA invites our members to encourage the hygienists in their offices to complete the survey.
