%X <strong>Aim</strong>: The aim of our study is to evaluate the knowledge of students at the end of their studies regarding the setting up and financing in dental private sector. <strong>Methods</strong>: We distributed anonymous questionnaire to 138 students at the end of their medical studies. Data entry and statistical analysis were carried out using SPSS software at the Faculty¡¯s Community Health Epidemiology and Biostatistics Laboratory. <strong>Results</strong>: Only 3% of students know the required documents for setting up in a practice, 4.5% understand the definition of a lease contract. 80.4% of students admit their lack of knowledge regarding taxes, and 62.4% regarding tax declaration. 59.4% are unaware of the elements that should be included in insurance for a dental practice. 90.2% express a need for training in a private installation and 89.5% in financing. <strong>Conclusions</strong>: Despite the efforts made by the faculty of Dentistry of Casablanca, the results highlighted a major need for further training in setting up and financing a practice. To integrate the liberal installation into continuing Education, educational initiatives such as seminars and round-table discussions in collaboration with the order council and other partners involved are therefore necessary.
