Over the course of a century, we’ve established ourselves as the beating heart of dentistry in WA. What began as a somewhat staid, male-dominated association has quietly evolved into an inclusive “family” – one that supports WA’s dentists professionally, emotionally and socially, with the result that they’re better able to look after the oral health of every member of society.
Guidelines and recommendations regarding COVID-19 are regularly being updated, so we advise our members to keep abreast of the latest updates as they become available.
The Department of Health’s website includes COVID-19 information for health professionals: Department of Health (WA).
As the war progresses in Ukraine, the medical supplies that help civilians and soldiers are becoming harder to source.
ADAWA Members and practices can donate supplies.
Our WA Dental CPD program delivers a comprehensive professional development program, even during the challenges of COVID restrictions. Our courses and workshops extend far beyond dentistry, with the express goal of making our dentists better practitioners and better people.
How to thrive and survive in uncertain times

We support dental professionals throughout their careers, from the point at which they begin their journey at UWA Dental School, to their eventual and well-deserved retirement - and beyond.
Become a memberLearn More about ADAWAOperating out of West Perth, the ADAWA team is dedicated to the support of our members and the promotion of oral health in the community.
In addition to our employed staff, our team includes a board of council members. These councillors, all dental practitioners, volunteer their time to represent the membership.
We've nurtured valuable relationships with WA’s leading health agencies, in order to support their messaging and better educate WA’s dentists.
We also have partnerships with leading local businesses and affiliations with volunteerism groups to provide benefits and opportunities for our members.
As the recognised voice of oral health, ADAWA has a number of dental-health resources for the general public - although all queries around oral health and dental procedures should, of course, be discussed with your trusted dental professional.
