Welcome
supporting pediatric dental education starts with you
By donating to the WPDAA, you become a valued member in support of our mission. Together, we are bringing our goals to life—promoting and expanding the legacy of the University of Washington’s Department of Pediatric Dentistry.
through shared experience passion & pride
We, the members of the WPDAA, contribute time, talent, and resources with the common goal to support the University of Washington as a premier pediatric dental residency program and enrich its legacy and network— empowering future generations of pediatric dentists who will stand on our shoulders in their own careers beyond residency.
who we are
The WPDAA is composed of faculty and graduates of the University of Washington Pediatric Dentistry program. Our shared goal is to provide robust support for residents, alumni, faculty, and the advancement of the profession.
we are forever learning
All alumni and faculty from UW, we strive for inclusivity and connectivity. We aim to strengthen the bond we share of our educational experience, and remain connected with the pulse of dental education as we move through our careers.

“As a resident who moved away, I want to make sure that the residency that gave me the opportunity to be the provider I am has the ability to train and empower current residents at the highest standards—just as I was.”
— Dustin Janssen, DDS, MSD
