The Washington State Dental Association (WSDA) has been the voice of dentistry in Washington since its inception in 1887. With 3,800 members strong (over 80 percent of practicing dental professionals in the state), the Association exists to promote oral health of the highest quality. Members of the WSDA belong to a tripartite system that also includes the American Dental Association and local component societies. Organized dentistry in the state maintains a powerful presence in the Legislature, sets ethical standards for the profession, develops and supports services for those lacking oral health care, and demands lifelong learning to perpetuate professional excellence.
