DENTAL ORGANIZATION IN TURKEY

LOCAL DENTAL CHAMBERS & TDA
Dentists are organized through local chambers which exist in every city where the number of the dentists are more than 100 and the delegates of the chambers are all represented in the organization of TDA. Currently there are 33 dental chambers functioning under the supervision of TDA. The Board and the Commitees (Auditors Committee and Disciplinary Committee) of TDA are elected by local delegates in the General Assembly for a period of 2 years. The problems of the dental profession and the solutions are discussed in these General Assemblies.
The Board of TDA consists of 11 members. There are 5 members in the Auditors Committee and 9 members in the Supreme Disciplinary Committee. The Board regularly meets at monthly intervals. The Supreme Disciplinary Committee has regular meetings in January, May and October, while the Auditors Committee meets twice a year. Besides the Board and the Committees, there are also functioning commissions under the supervision of TDA.
