Serving Everyone is Our Contribution
Our Commitment to Oral Health Care: The Arab Dental Association in Israel
The Arab Dental Association in Israel is committed to promoting oral health care for the public and supporting dentists. We provide high-quality services and serve our community towards a better future.
We are committed to developing the dental profession through continuous education. We strive to provide a supportive environment for all our colleagues, and we maintain the integrity of the profession and serve our patients with the highest professional and ethical standards.
We care about strengthening and documenting professional relations with the Department of Oral Health in the Ministry of Health, academic and health institutions in the country, and building bridges for cooperation with all those working in the field of oral health in the country, Jews and Arabs alike.
Our Contribution
The Arab Dental Association in Israel is dedicated to promoting oral health in the Arab community in the country. The association makes vital efforts to improve healthcare and education in the field of dentistry, as well as to develop the skills of dentists, work on their empowerment, and care for both social and scientific aspects.
Increase the number of specialization spots
The issue of specializations in dentistry is one of the topics that has occupied and continues to occupy the association's management since its inception to this day.
The association's efforts over the past ten years have resulted in an increase in the number of Arab specialists, but this increase is not sufficient, especially in the fields of orthodontics, periodontal diseases, and oral rehabilitation.
Representation of Arab dentists in institutions
We strive to change the composition of the scientific council and eliminate longstanding bureaucracy. We've asked the Health Minister for representation in the scientific council and various committees, as it is inconceivable that Arab dentists, who make up 35% of the country's dentists, have not been represented in any dental institutions since 1998.
Enhancing community clinic development
The association is committed to developing dental clinics in the Arab community in line with technological and scientific advancements, enhancing doctors' professional knowledge. The management ensures that each clinic meets Ministry of Health requirements for equipment quality, sterilization, cleanliness, safety procedures, and providing an advanced environment to welcome and serve patients optimally.
Free care for those in need
Our role is very prominent in the enactment of the official health law and free treatment for those up to age 18 and over 72. Additionally, the association provides free treatment services for vulnerable segments of the community, especially in the fields of orthodontics and dental implants.
Upholding professional integrity
The association ensures that doctors adhere to all laws related to professional integrity, preventing false advertising, avoiding gaining a professional advantage over others through deceit and fraud, and refraining from using unauthorized titles.
Education in oral and dental health
The association raises awareness about oral and dental health by organizing lectures and workshops in schools, clubs, and social centers. Additionally, it conducts free educational activities on dental health in unrecognized Bedouin villages through its members.
Collaboration with academic and official institutions
The association develops relationships with the Dental Health Department, dental faculties at Hadassah Ein Kerem and Tel Aviv University, government hospitals like Barzilai, Nahariya, Rambam, Poriya, and health funds, benefiting citizens and doctors alike.
The association builds relationships with dental associations and academic institutions locally and internationally, including those in Palestine, the Golan, Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Spain, and Romania.
