General Membership Terms
The membership year runs from January through December of any given year. Dues should be paid in full or an installment plan should be established by January 1 of that membership year. If dues have not been paid in full or a payment plan has not been established as of March 31, membership will expire and member dentists will no longer receive tripartite membership benefits.
Applicants are first approved for provisional membership. With provisional membership, applicants receive full access to all member benefits for 30 days while their local dental society reviews their application. This is standard procedure for all applications. If approved, applicants will be granted full membership at the end of this 30-day review period automatically with no further action needed on their part.
WSDA membership dues include a mandatory DentPAC contribution for political activities. If member dentists do not wish to contribute to DentPAC, they can choose to have this mandatory contribution applied to the Issues Fund. Contributions to the Issues Fund go only towards WSDA legislative issues; they do not support any particular candidate. Member dentists who wish to contribute to the Issues Fund in place of DentPAC must contact WSDA staff before paying their membership dues.
All member dentists pledge to adhere to the ADA Principles of Ethics and Code of Professional Conduct. Both can be reviewed at ada.org/ethics.
