AAE21, the annual meeting of the American Association of Endodontists, will take place April 21 to 24 (Wednesday through Saturday). The event is being conducted completely online using a virtual platform allowing attendees to view general sessions, enjoy live and on-demand educational content, participate in small-group video chats and interact with exhibitors.

Known as the premier source of continuing education in endodontics, AAE’s annual meeting is the largest and most diverse opportunity for learning the latest endodontic techniques, exploring new research and exchanging ideas. As the specialty continues to adapt to these changing times, the annual meeting remains a fixture in advancing the specialty.

“We have spent the past several months reimagining the annual meeting you know and love into a virtual format, and we pledge to bring you an experience that’s as close to an authentic live meeting as possible — all from the safety of home,” meeting organizers said in an online announcement.

To access the meeting and to register, visit www.aae.org/AAE21. All session recordings will be available through the AAE21 website until May 31, 2021. Virtual attendees may log in and watch sessions as many times as desired.

Meeting attendees will have access to the AAE’s virtual exhibit hall, featuring giveaways, resources and special offers. The exhibit hall will include a listing of companies, a showcase of products, show specials and opportunities for industry education.

The virtual exhibit hall will be open Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. (CDT), Thursday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Friday from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

The Opening General Session, taking place Wednesday from 4:30 to 6 p.m. (CDT), will feature singer-songwriter John Ondrasik as keynote speaker. Ondrasik has spent the past decade writing deeply personal songs that include social messages, invoke the human spirit and make an emotional connection. With the past six albums by Five For Fighting, the hockey moniker stage name under which he performs, Ondrasik has seen multitudes of successes.

Among the many educational highlights, Dr. Yoshi Terauchi will present his session, “Do You Know Instrument Retrieval Is Much Easier and More Predictable Than You Think It Is?” on Wednesday at 2:30 p.m. (CDT). Terauchi will offer his expertise to help participants discover the best techniques for instrument retrieval.

Opening welcome remarks will be offered on Wednesday from 9:50 to 10 a.m. (CDT). The General Assembly will take place Friday from 10 to 11:30 a.m. The Edgar D. Coolidge Awards will be presented Saturday from 4:30 to 6 p.m.

“You can always count on the AAE to provide unparalleled endodontic education, and the lineup for AAE21 is no different,” meeting organizers said. “With a combination of live presentations and session recordings on demand, AAE21 will keep you busy with flexible opportunities to earn up to 56 C.E. credits.”
