January President's Message - Dr. J. Perry Ormiston



Dear Members,

As we step into the new year, I want to take a moment to reflect on the values that define our profession and how we can embrace them as we renew our commitment to the patients we serve. January represents a fresh start — an opportunity for reflection, growth, and rejuvenation. It is a time for us to renew not only our personal resolutions but also our collective dedication to the principles that guide our practice of dentistry.

First and foremost, as dental professionals, we must always center our decisions on the well-being of our patients. Every choice we make — from the treatment options we offer to the way we engage with our communities — must be driven by one clear purpose: to improve the health and lives of those who entrust us with their care. Our patients deserve the best, and it is our responsibility to ensure that every decision, every action, and every innovation is aligned with their best interests.

As we navigate the opportunities and challenges ahead in 2025, I encourage all of us to prioritize patient-centered care in all aspects of our practice. Let us commit to using the most current evidence, maintaining the highest ethical standards, and striving for excellence in all we do. Let us also support each other in our shared mission, as our unity strengthens the impact we have on our patients and our communities.

This is a year of renewal. A time to reaffirm our purpose and enhance the trust that patients place in us. Let us approach every day with renewed dedication, making choices that place our patients’ health at the forefront of everything we do.

Wishing you all a year filled with growth, collaboration, and success in both your professional and personal lives. Together, we will continue to make a meaningful difference, one patient at a time.

All the best,

Perry Ormiston
President, Pierce County Dental Society
