Plenary presentations and breakout workshops will focus on practical updates that can help you and your dental teams improve practice and transform oral healthcare.

We strive to share this knowledge with you.

Our speakers will present key updates spanning dental anesthesia, oral and maxillofacial surgery, pathology, and radiology, prosthodontics, periodontics, endodontics, and specialty care dentistry.

The theme Cutting-Edge Innovations: Transforming Patient Care will guide our programming in 2024. Explore surgical and technological innovations that can drastically change your practice, including applications of digital workflows and artificial intelligence.
