SINGAPORE: From 18 to 21 August, the fourth Asia-Pacific edition of the CAD/CAM and Digital Dentistry International Conference will bring together leading experts in the field of digital dentistry at the Suntec Singapore Convention and Exhibition Centre.

Over the last 12 years, new developments in CAD/CAM and digital dentistry have played a key role in underpinning the scientific understanding of dentistry. Thus, the conference programme aims to convey how to achieve effective results while updating attendees with the latest knowledge in the field. To meet this goal, the scientific committee has selected a multitude of scientific sessions, panels and problem-based cases that will provide intensive learning opportunities through hands-on experiences presented by practitioners in diverse disciplines, according to the organiser.

After the overwhelming success of the 2015 edition—which was attended by 780 dental professionals and 89 dental technicians—this year’s conference falls under the umbrella of Singapore Dental Week 2017 and will feature a series of specialty events. The main programme on 19 and 20 August is complemented by the first Digital Orthodontic Forum on 18 August, the Dental Technician Parallel Session and Table Clinic Presentations on 19 and 20 August, and a select offering of multidisciplinary hands-on courses.

Overall, this year’s scientific line-up consists of 40 presentations by 28 world-famous speakers on a range of topics, including chairside CAD/CAM solutions, smile analysis, prosthodontic dentistry and applications in digital orthodontics. Recent findings with clinical implications, marketing opportunities and emerging technologies will be covered through interactive sessions and live demonstrations, alongside essential update sessions and hands-on demonstrations.

An industry exhibition with over 40 leading dental manufacturers will be held alongside the scientific programme.
