This year, the Philippine Pediatric Dental Society, Inc. (PPDSI) will host for the first time, the International Association of Pediatric Dentistry (IAPD) Regional Meeting in Manila, as we hold this in conjuction with PPDSI’s 24th Annual Congress. The IAPD is a non-profit organization founded in 1969, with the objective of contributing to the progress and promotion of oral health for children around the globe. It has now 64 national member societies and represents more than 15,000 dentists, of which PPDSI has been a member for more than 10 years.
The theme of the conference is Pediatric Dentistry: the Conventional, the Alternative and the Current, as lectures on the evolving techniques and clinical guidelines in the dental management of children will be shared by international experts. This will update your current knowledge and empower you with different approaches. This conference also aims to discuss how all these will apply in your practice and ultimately, the improvement of service for the children.
We are fortunate to have four internationally renowned speakers for this conference — Prof. Richard Widmer from Melbourne, Australia; Prof. Angus Cameron and Dr. Eduardo Alcaino, both from Sydney, Australia and Dr. Ari Kupietzky from Israel. They are also prolific authors, as they have contributions in various articles to scientific journals and textbooks.
Come and join us in Manila! This city indeed has its charm. Known for the great hospitality of Filipinos, you will have a great time learning and connecting with your colleagues.
