The WSDA Citizen of the Year Award is given each year to recognize a member dentist who has given outstanding service to a domestic and/or foreign community; to encourage others toward such activity; to reinforce values of service to the profession; and to promote the image of dentistry.

We want to hear about the good works our members are doing in their communities. Please consider nominating a member dentist you know for this honor!

This year, recognizing a member dentist is easier and more accessible than ever before. The nomination form has been simplified and can now be completed online in just a few minutes.
