SEOUL, South Korea: On 21 April, Osstem Implant held the first session of its virtual conference, the Osstem Meeting Online, which achieved over 95,000 total live cumulative views from more than 60 countries within 2.5 hours. This series of live-streamed symposia, which create a virtual conference experience for dental professionals around the globe, will culminate in a session on 27 June that will feature a socially sustainable fundraising campaign.

The world is holding its breath in the times of the coronavirus. The COVID-19 crisis is having a profound impact on social life and poses acute economic challenges for many industries, and the dental industry is no exception. Many events, including conferences and conventions, in the field are being cancelled or postponed. Osstem Implant too has announced the postponement of its 13th annual global symposium, the 2020 Osstem World Meeting in Istanbul in Turkey, to next year.

Driving a digital transition of dental conferences

At the same time, however, by employing high technology and new technical solutions for digitalisation, Osstem Implant is taking a crucial leap towards the new era of implantology. Since 2018, Osstem Implant has already been providing dental professionals with opportunities to participate in its annual global meeting by offering live-streaming services. Based on its years of experience in digital transformation, Osstem Implant invites dental professionals around the world to an entirely virtual global conference experience this year. The Osstem Meeting Online will run until 27 June 2020, and the entire programme, including nine lectures and five live surgeries, will come alive via its own interactive live-streaming platform.

Hoping that the global situation will get better, we provide the ultimate virtual live conference experience this year, bringing dental professionals of the world closer to innovative ways of living together, Osstem Implant stated.

Knowledge transfer through real-time interaction

Whether they are at entry level and keen to learn or experienced dental professionals seeking a new challenge, attendees will find relevant standard and highly advanced live surgeries and comprehensive seminars by world-renowned speakers. Allowing the maximum knowledge transfer through real-time interaction between speakers and attendees, the first session on 21 April featured two live surgeries. Covering rare cases of implant placement in partially and completely edentulous patients aged over 70, it successfully delivered first-class implant treatment educational content to participants. All attendees had the opportunity to pose real-time questions and engage further with the speakers and other participants after the session.

Towards solidarity in dental implantology

On 27 June, the conference will celebrate its grand finale with a live surgery by Dr Marco Tallarico from Italy, and this will be combined with a socially sustainable fundraising campaign, in which the speaker, Osstem Implant and all attendees will actively participate and engage with one another. The entire amount of the fund collected will be donated to an organisation in Italy for support in overcoming the COVID-19 crisis.

Register now

Next sessions will be held on 12 May and 4, 18 and 27 June. Online registration for the Osstem Meeting Online will remain open until 27 June. More information about the meeting and registration can be found here or via the social media channels of Osstem Implant.

MALLORCA, Spain: From 12 to 15 September in Palma de Mallorca, the forthcoming MIS Global Conference will spotlight the latest trends in dental implantology. Focusing on the very latest innovations and digital workflows, the event is expected to attract a broad international audience and to foster further advancements in clinical practice. According to Tali Jacoby, director of products and marketing at MIS Implants Technologies, the company is particularly excited about meeting with the MIS community, which has a strong familial feeling and helps to make the event unique.

The three-day conference will make use of the valuable insights that MIS has learned and put into practice at the five previous editions of the event. Combining a top-tier scientific programme with strong networking opportunities, MIS recognises the importance of creating a strong community within the dental implant industry. The company has positioned itself as a provider of a comprehensive 360° approach to implantology, and attendees can expect a holistic programme that aims to address all aspects of clinical needs. 

Jacoby explained: “The conference will feature a diverse range of the most attractive topics for dental implantologists. This includes discussions on future trends, techniques for bone regeneration, addressing biological complications, ensuring tissue stability and optimising digital workflows. By incorporating such interesting content, the conference will provide attendees with a well-rounded and thorough understanding of implantology.” 

The MIS Global Conference is intended for general dentists and specialists from around the world, and the aim of the event is to create a dynamic environment for professional growth and the exchange of knowledge.

One of the finest scientific programmes in dental implantology

Featuring a line-up of well-known lecturers, the scientific programme will explore the latest developments in dental implantology. One highlight of the programme will be a live surgery demonstrating the full-arch placement of six implants using a surgical guide. To be performed by Dr Stavros Pelekanos from his clinic in Athens in Greece, this case highlight will showcase the new MIS stackable guide and will be moderated by Prof. Nitzan Bichacho. Prof. Bichacho will facilitate a dynamic discussion throughout this live session, which MIS says will underscore its commitment to showcasing cutting-edge techniques at the forefront of implantology. 

Calling all clinicians

Acknowledging the importance of nurturing the next generation of dental implantologists, the conference’s clinical case competition will be overseen by a scientific committee of senior academics. 

Jacoby is encouraging all dentists to spread the word within their clinical teams, and she offered a word of advice for clinicians considering entering. She said: “I would encourage you to seize this invaluable opportunity for exposure and recognition within the medical community. Winning this competition opens doors to a vast network of dentists at the conference and within the broader MIS and scientific communities. Past winners have gone on to be nurtured by MIS as key opinion leaders and have established themselves with a global reputation. This competition serves as a launch pad for their professional journey, and we take great pride in supporting their growth every step of the way.” 

One aspect of the MIS Global Conference series that attendees have particularly enjoyed is a strong focus on networking. “Networking events have always been a special highlight at MIS conferences, and they are all about connecting with the local atmosphere and creating lasting memories that make the event unforgettable,” Jacoby said.
