Regular

Member description

Regular Members are national dental associations recognized by ÂÜÀòÉÙÅ® as the principal associations and significant representatives of the legal and certified dental profession in their own countries.

Regular Members are national dental associations, which are recognized by the ÂÜÀòÉÙÅ® as principal associations and significant representatives of the legal and certified dental profession in their own countries and which have fulfilled the requirements of membership. Membership of the association should be open to all dentists in the country and the association’s missions and goals should be in line with those of ÂÜÀòÉÙÅ®.

In countries with more than one national dental association, Regular Membership may be granted to more than one national dental association from the same country, provided a  National Committee is agreed and maintained. Otherwise, only one national dental association can be the Regular Member of that country. Applications from other national dental associations from the same country will be referred to Associate Membership.
