The Dental Tourism Association (DTA) is issuing an urgent warning to all visitors and members of our community about a fraudulent website that is impersonating our organization.

We want to clarify that Dental Tourism Association Online is not affiliated with us, the Dental Tourism Association in any manner. The actions taken by this fraudulent entity are not endorsed or supported by us. We strongly advise all visitors to avoid providing any personal or financial information to this website.

To help you protect yourself, here are some key indicators that the site you are visiting may be fraudulent:
- Fraudulent Website URL: The fraudulent website is using the url “dentaltourismassociation” + “.online”
- Generic Logo: The logo used on the fraudulent site is generic and does not match our official branding.
- Color Scheme: The site uses a generic palette of blues, which may appear professional but lacks the distinctive branding of the Dental Tourism Association.
