Did you know that Tokuyama Dental America’s journey began more than a century ago with soda ash production in Japan? Our rich history is a testament to our growth, rooted in the strong foundation laid by Tokuyama Corporation, our parent company. As you read this blog, I invite you to explore our journey—from manufacturing soda products to pioneering innovative dental materials.
As a woman practicing in dentistry, you have the added pressure to always be extraordinary, to live up to the expectations set by those before you. Expectations that were built in a world in which you were not always granted a seat at the table, nor could you always freely share your voice. So much progress has been made since then as women have paved their own pathway through the dental field. We, at Tokuyama Dental America, are incredibly proud of all the women in dentistry and especially those that we have the pleasure of working with. To best honor their work and unique experiences, we asked a few key opinion leaders to share their story, along with the challenges they face in a once male-dominated profession.
An Indespensable Role In celebrating the achievements of women in dentistry, we not only recognize their invaluable contributions to oral healthcare, but also admire the progress made. As we look to the future, we strive to continue to support and uplift women in dentistry fostering an environment where all individuals, regardless of gender, can thrive and impart their meaningful contributions to the field.
