Dr. Tokiko Poppe of Cosmos Dentistry in Bellevue, Washington, considers herself incredibly fortunate to work in dentistry because she gets to witness and participate in the lives of her patients. Dr. Poppe believes early intervention and knowledge sharing are vital to preventing oral disease and superior oral health. Dr. Poppe views the human body as one unit, and oral health issues can often be linked to more significant wellness problems.
Dr. Poppe graduated from the University of the Pacific’s Arthur Dugoni School of Dentistry in San Francisco. She also holds a Japanese dental license, speaking Japanese and English in her multilingual dental care practice. Dr. Poppe is enthusiastic about expanding her knowledge by enrolling in various continuing education courses and actively participating in multiple local and national study groups.
Dr. Poppe was involved in craniofacial research in school, where she studied cleft lip and palate extensively. She also completed a General Practice Residency in California, where she cared for medically compromised adults at Veterans Hospital and children under general anesthesia at the University Medical Center.
Dr. Poppe continues to seek further dental knowledge and has completed all Spear courses at Spear Education.
She enjoys being involved in the community and sharing her knowledge with society. Dr. Poppe accomplishes this through her position as a board member for an organized dentistry, where she teaches other dentists. She is also a member of the ADA, AAGO, AAPMD, WSDA, SKCD, AGD, American Laser Study, TBI Ambassadors, and AMR advanced program.
Dr. Poppe gains energy from her interactions with the Cosmos Dentistry team and her patients. She spends her free time with her family and friends, reading, being outside in nature, and practicing Yoga and Pilates. They have a Balinese cat named Gumi and a Goldendoodle named Winnie, both of which bring her great joy and happiness.
