The National Federation of Dental Manufacturers and Technicians has expressed its deep concern regarding the ongoing attacks aimed at tarnishing the reputation of their profession through repeated and malicious complaints intended to undermine practitioners. This statement follows recent court rulings that acquitted several professionals in the sector of baseless charges. The federation reiterated its rejection of the constant targeting of the profession, which manifests through unfounded complaints and unwarranted inspection campaigns.
In an official statement, the federation called for a serious and responsible dialogue with authorities and all relevant stakeholders to establish clear guidelines for practicing the profession. They emphasized the need for a legal framework that protects workers, promotes fairness, and expedites the organization and regulation of the profession. This is crucial for ensuring clarity in responsibilities, safeguarding citizens, and preserving the dignity of the professionals involved.
The Moroccan Association of Dental Manufacturers and Technicians recently announced a series of preliminary rulings from various courts across the country, including in Salé, Khmissat, and Qalaat al-Sraghna, which acquitted professionals from charges of illegal medical practice, impersonation, and fraud.
In this context, the federation praised these recent judicial decisions, which reaffirm the independence of the Moroccan judiciary and its respect for law and established facts. They expressed hope that these rulings would put an end to attempts to defame the profession through malicious and recurring complaints aimed at weakening practitioners and discouraging them from fulfilling their duties and defending their rights and gains.
Furthermore, the federation reiterated the vital role that dental manufacturers and technicians play as quasi-medical professions in Morocco since the country’s independence. They lamented the continued harassment, prosecutions, malicious complaints, and unjustified inspection campaigns lacking any legal basis that professionals in the sector face in various regions of Morocco.
