In IADS with collaboration with world health and voluntary organisations we run a Voluntary Work Abroad Project currently existing in several different countries. The project allows students to experience primary oral healthcare in developing areas.


Thanks to cooperation with these organisations our members can join already existing programmes in Ecuador, Uganda, Tanzania, Cambodia, Guatemala, Kenya and Sudan. Furthermore, we work on establishing new voluntary works. In the future we would like to establish new voluntary possibilities in region of South Sinai and in Eastern Europe.

On our website we created updated database of voluntary possibilities for dental students and dentists from different countries. Everyone interested in such an initiative finds there essential information on the project as well as contact information. All of them are addressed to dentists and students with clinical experience. They usually work under the supervision of dentists. Projects are organized by local universities, hospitals or health organizations. Volunteers provide local patients with basic dental treatment as well as promote dental prophylaxis.

 


If you would like to learn more about existing projects for dental students and young dentists please check: 
Throughout last year 40 of IADS students participated in this kind of trips and helped countless of people in need for basic dental care also getting priceless experiences for them as future dentists, treating over 10 000 patients. Every day the circle of projects is getting bigger and IADS members are also getting more experienced. We are happy to change and to spread our knowledge to every point in the world and at the same time to get benefits from anyone who wants to help and serve the humanity.
