Tomorrow, our Dental Workforce Diversity & Inclusion expert—Lolinda Turner —is taking over Delta Dental of WA! Join Lolinda and Delta Dental Foundation of MI, OH, IN, and NC at 8AM tomorrow for an important conversation on workforce development in oral health. See you there! #ToothChatter #Takeover

A1: Workforce shortages are affecting all dental professions, including hygienists and assistants. There’s a big lack of diversity in the dental workforce, especially for Black/African Americans, Native Americans, Pacific Islanders, and Hispanic people. - Lo #ToothChatter

There are so many benefits! This includes financial stability, schedule flexibility, and a long-term, meaningful career. - Lo #ToothChatter

Tech schools and universities can partner with local organizations to create and provide #scholarships and pathways to obtain education. For me, I love that I can teach younger generations about oral health and the different careers dentistry has to offer. - Lo #ToothChatter

A4: Giving back the smiles that were once lost due to poor oral health! And being part of a team that helps patients improve their overall health. - Lo #ToothChatter

A5: Representation matters! Diverse dental professionals can get involved with underrepresented groups and show them that they too can be in dentistry. Mentorships can make all the difference. - Lo #ToothChatter

A6: Integrate oral health and dental careers into the classroom! Students of all ages can benefit from hands-on experience in their health and sciences classes. Summer camps are also a great place to teach the whole family about careers in oral health. - Lo #ToothChatter

A7: During my oral health career, I didn’t have a mentor. But that’s why this work is so important to me now! If I had a mentor, I would have entered dentistry way earlier than I did—and might have even become an oral surgeon. - Lo #ToothChatter

Thanks for the great conversation, Delta Dental Foundation of MI, OH, IN, and NC! Improving diversity & inclusion in the dental field starts with all of us. Ideas on how to support Washington's oral health workforce? Let's connect! Email me at [email protected]. - Lo

Tomorrow, leaders at Delta Dental WA have the pleasure of joining together with Adriel Bettelheim to discuss oral health equity at our @Axios roundtable. Stay tuned for some insight on the discussion and takeaways

Partnerships will be critical in addressing oral health issues in Washington. Today, we brought together leaders from WA state’s health care, business, policy, and non-profit sectors to discuss oral health equity. "We can’t relax on coverage and access.” (HCA Director)

Last month we met with other Expert Voices in Healthcare to discuss combatting barriers to access and bridging equity gaps. Our partnerships allow us to get this work done. We look forward to collaborating into the future. Read more: bit.ly/3WYCEwp

We hosted a great StormAcademy session with Delta Dental of WA on Saturday. They gave girls from two local orgs a chance to learn about careers in dentistry from women in the field through fun activities, and they also got to examine animal teeth with Pacific Science Center! 🦖🪥
