Athlone IN THE HEART OF THE COUNTRY!
Irish Dental Association – HSE Dental Surgeons Group
ANNUAL SEMINAR Thursday and Friday, October 6 and 7, 2016 Sheraton Hotel, Athlone
CPD VERIFIABLE
WELCOME
The IDA’s Annual HSE Dental Surgeons Seminar 2016 heads to the midlands and the beautiful town of Athlone on the banks of the Shannon. It is indeed a great privilege for me to be the Group’s President for 2016-17. I look forward to the year ahead and to representing you, the members. This year’s event will take place on Thursday and Friday, October 6 and 7, at the Sheraton Hotel, Athlone. We see a slight change in the format for 2016 which, I hope, will mean even greater attendance and offer better ways of learning. Thursday’s programme will be similar to previous years, with clinical presentations on various topics such as the periodontal–systemic interface, difficult extractions, an update on the Minamata Convention, trauma and orthodontic referrals. A full trade show will also take place. Friday then sees a very different format to the proceedings. I am delighted to welcome back Prof. Avi Banerjee to continue the "MI" theme and philosophy of clinical delivery of oral healthcare to our patients. This will be followed by a series of four practical tutorials, with demonstrations to smaller audiences. Every delegate will have the chance to complete all four tutorials over the course of the day: oral radiology; infection control; endodontics; and, composites. While the event traditionally caters for HSE dentists, it is by no means exclusive to the public sector. GPs, specialists and all dental professionals are welcome and all are invited to attend. Finally, our Seminar social evening takes place on Thursday evening. This year we are moving to a nearby restaurant for our annual dinner. We look forward to a casual, sociable evening with all delegates welcome. I look forward to seeing you all in Athlone in October.
