The International Association of Paediatric Dentistry invites you to the first IAPD Global Summit on ECC

Dear Colleagues,

The Board of Directors of the International Association of Paediatric Dentistry is pleased to invite you to attend the first IAPD Global Summit on Early Childhood Caries, scheduled from 2-4 November 2018 in Bangkok, Thailand.

The purpose of this summit is to bring together leading scientists (researchers and clinicians) from around the globe so as to discuss and agree on an internationally accepted definition for Early Childhood Caries (ECC). This will facilitate research and clinical management of one of the most prevalent diseases to affect children, that constitutes one of the leading public health issues in many countries.

We invite all our National Societies and individual members and call on the industry to participate in this important scientific event, as this will be one of the few international opportunities  to meet together, to exchange information and to discuss not only how to deal with this important oral health problem  but at the same time learn about the latest innovations on the management of this disease.    

 IAPD is the Global Voice of children’s oral health and offers you the opportunity to:

•  Update your knowledge about ECC and contribute to IAPD’s goal to improve prevention and care for children who suffer from this disease.
• Discuss and learn from the experts about the latest information on the research that is helping clinicians understand and manage ECC.
• Get acquainted with the newest products for prevention of ECC.
• Explore innovative restorative treatments for ECC.

We look  forward to welcome you all in Bangkok in November 2018!
