Dr. Rashad Murad is the ambassador of the International Council for Dental Implants in Syria

Damascus, (ST) – The International Council for Dental Implants appointed the Syrian Dr. RashadMurad as its ambassador for the third time and for a period of two years.

The Council which was founded in 1972 is the largest provider of continuing education and clinical and basic research support in the field of dental implants. It includes general dentists, oral and maxillofacial surgeons, periodontics, orthodontists, laboratory technicians, researchers and academics from nearly 90 countries.

Dr. Murad told SANA that, Syria has imposed itself on the regional level in the field of dental implants, where it has made great progress in this specialty, which was reflected in the quality of the services provided to patients and the implant results, which approached the rates of global success.

Dr. Murad stressed Syria’s keenness on its active presence in the council, as it held two international conferences, one at Damascus University in 2017, and the other at Al-Assad University Hospital in 2019. 

In 2020 the conference that was scheduled was postponed due to the Corona pandemic.

Dr. Murad holds a dental degree from Al-Baath University. He was appointed for the first time as an ambassador for the World Council in 2015 and this position was renewed in 2017 and 2019. He is a professor at Damascus University and has more than 21 scientific books.
