Quick Answer
The Wyoming Dental Association is the official professional organization representing dental health providers across Wyoming. The association provides continuing education, legislative advocacy, practice support for members, and public dental health resources for providers and residents across Wyoming.
The Wyoming Dental Association (WyDA) is the statewide professional membership organization for Wyoming dentists, part of organized dentistry's tripartite structure: national membership through the American Dental Association, state membership through WyDA, and local participation through district and component societies. WyDA is headquartered at 1309 East Kearney Street, Laramie, WY 82070.
WyDA describes its mission around three pillars:
- Continuing education — equipping members with current advancements, techniques, and best practices in dentistry.
- Advocacy — working on behalf of practitioners on access-to-care, reimbursement policy, and legislative initiatives affecting Wyoming dentistry.
- Patient care — supporting members' ability to deliver high-quality, ethical care to their communities.
WyDA's 2026 Annual Session is scheduled for June 17–20 in Laramie, combining continuing education programming with association business. The association also holds a separate Mid-Winter CE event. Membership is open to practicing dentists, recent graduates, and dental students, and provides access to national ADA resources alongside state and local WyDA programming.
A separate organization, the Wyoming Dental Hygienists' Association, represents hygienists in the state and is linked from the Board's website as a related resource.
