Thank you for your membership in the Washington State Dental Association (WSDA), American Dental Association (ADA) and local dental society this past year.

Renew Your Membership Online

Please continue to support your Association by renewing your membership for 2021. Your renewal helps us continue to serve as Washington’s strongest advocate in support of dentists and your patients. You may renew quickly and easily online at wsda.org/renew.

Help WSDA devote our resources to members, not paperwork, by renewing your membership online this year. All members who renew online before Jan. 1, 2021 will be automatically entered for a chance to win a refund of their 2021 dues!

One-Time Dues Assessment

While renewing your membership, you will notice a one-time dues assessment of up to $300. WSDA Secretary-Treasurer Dr. Nathan Russell explains the necessity of this one-time assessment in a video to WSDA members, which I invite you to watch here.

I want to stress that this assessment, approved by the WSDA House of Delegates, is essential to the financial strength of the Association due to the cancellation of the 2020 Pacific Northwest Dental Conference — which normally accounts for 40% of WSDA’s annual revenue — and costs incurred from the successful lawsuit against Delta Dental of Washington.

Important Notes for Renewals This Year

• We strongly encourage all members to renew their membership online. Not only do you help WSDA devote resources to members, not paperwork, but you also will be entered to win a refund of your 2021 dues if you renew online by Jan. 1!
• We must receive your mailed renewal at the WSDA office no later than Monday, Dec. 21 to ensure processing prior to Jan. 1. Please note that the WSDA office will be closed for the holidays from Dec. 25 through Jan. 1 and dues may only be paid online during this time. The office will re-open on Monday, Jan. 4.
• Due to COVID-19, renewals by phone are delayed. All calls coming into the WSDA office are automatically routed to voicemail. While WSDA staff will do their best to return your call as soon as possible, we encourage members to pay online for fastest and easiest processing.

The strength of organized dentistry lies in our numbers. I ask that you continue to support WSDA by renewing your membership for 2021. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions. I look forward to serving you through the next year and beyond.

Sincerely,

Dr. Dennis Bradshaw
WSDA President
