NEW YORK, N.Y., USA: The California Society of Periodontists is presenting a Dental Hygiene Symposium in conjunction with the American Academy of Periodontology annual meeting. The symposium is scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 20, at the annual meeting’s headquarters hotel, the San Francisco Marriott Marquis.

It is worth four C.E. credits. The symposium is at additional cost and separate from the meeting’s one-day pass for hygienists.
The symposium has three presentations.
