NEW YORK, N.Y., USA: The American Academy of Implant Dentistry’s 2013 annual education conference is set for Oct. 23 to 26 in Phoenix at the JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort. The AAID’s 62nd Annual Meeting, titled “Technology and Biology Converge in the Valley of the Sun,” will explore how biology and technology converge to improve the treatment options available to doctors to solve ever more difficult and complex issues for patients.

An International Symposium, titled “International Excellence in Implant Dentistry — The Spanish Connection,” complete with simultaneous translation, will lead off the main podium programs. Four live surgery presentations in the operatory and 19 intensive courses, most with hands-on components, will be offered as well. The office team can look forward to two intensive days of programming on Thursday and Friday. Clinical and hands-on courses will be included.

One distinction that sets AAID’s meetings apart is the opportunity to interact directly with its world-class experts and presenters, according to organizers. You will be able to text your questions during the main podium presentations, and the presenter will be given those questions to answer live, at the end of the program.

The main podium programs feature presentations organized into distinct topic areas and cover timely issues facing the practicing implant dentist. Join 1,000 of your colleagues as you learn from world-class experts.

Topic categories include international excellence in implant dentistry; biology of osseointegration; clinical; technology; regeneration and biologics; and management of clinical dilemmas.

All main podium lectures will take place in the Grand Saguaro, Ballroom Level.
