BOSTON, Mass., USA: The Academy of General Dentistry’s annual meeting, AGD 2016, held July 14-17, was the place to be for the very best in continuing education. In the exhibit hall, company representatives were on hand to show meeting attendees the very latest in dental technology and services. The meeting was also a great opportunity for socializing, for connecting with compatriots from around the country, and for making new friends.
Clinical and practice management lectures, hands-on courses and live patient demonstrations were among the many offerings.
