Palestinian association of dental students -PADS- was founded in 2013,as a full country member in the International Association of Dental Students - IADS, with it's head quarter being at Al-Quds University , to fulfill the educational and practical needs for dental students in Palestine in the three national universities , and to build a bridge between Palestinian students and other students worl
d wide. As much as the dental curriculum and the clinical practice are important, they're not enough to create a well prepared dentist who's ready to face the world. So PADS and its foundations are making great efforts to engage students in more extracurricular activities and community work. Raising awareness among the Palestinian society, offering dental students the opportunity to work in dental research , carrying on exchange programmes and enhancing the communication with other universities abroad are all part of the association aims . The creation of a well educated, fully trained , and skilled generation of dentists is our vision .
