We are delighted to announce that the Texas Dental Association (TDA) has successfully closed on the sale of our building to the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) this week.

This is an exciting time for TDA, and we are committed to finding a new location that will support our continued growth and success. We will keep you updated as we progress on this journey.

Get involved. The landscape of dentistry has been changing quite a bit the last few decades. As of 2020, Asian dental workers are comprised of 18% of the total dental workforce according to a survey conducted by the American Dental Association Health Policy Institute. However, this percentage does not reflect the percentage of AAPI in leadership seats. Many Asian cultures teach their young to be hard workers and not cause trouble in the workforce. This allows for a generation of Asian Americans who don’t hold as many leadership positions as other minority counterparts. As a young AAPI dentist, I know how intimidating it can be to get involved with organized dentistry, especially when there are not similar people in positions of leadership. I have been fortunate enough to have many AAPI colleagues who mentored and paved the way for myself and others like me. It is as easy as showing up to your local component meetings and seeing if there is an opening for a committee you are interested in. Get involved in any way, shape, or form. I promise you won’t regret it! You’ll meet so many amazing people and forge memorable, lasting friendships. Your profession will thank you!

TDA is committed to supporting your journey, so let's keep moving forward together.
