Dr. Peter Moy, 2016 annual meeting program chair, said he is particularly excited about the "Focus Country Symposium: Implant Dentistry in China" with moderators Professor Dehua Li and Professor Feilong Deng.
"There will be 10 speakers from China presenting throughout the main program who will showcase the methods and procedures being used in China, one of the world's fastest-growing dental implant markets," Dr. Moy said. "Attendance at this meeting is an excellent way to represent China to AO's global membership."
The annual meeting will include hands-on workshop sessions for which attendees will receive a certificate of participation. In addition, there will be 50 clinical presentations, an expansive exhibit hall, hundreds of e-posters, oral scientific abstracts and oral clinical research sessions, corporate forums, lunch-and-learn sessions, a young clinicians lecture series and a TEAM program and laboratory technician program.
"Throughout the conference there will be numerous opportunities to network and socialize," added AO President Dr. Russell Nishimura. "Plus, with San Diego's warm weather and great amenities, such as beaches, golf, shopping and the zoo, it's an awesome place to bring your family."
