SINGAPORE: The seven-year wait since the last on-site International Team for Implantology (ITI) World Symposium has finally come to an end. The 2024 edition in Singapore kicked off today with a rousing opening ceremony, including a vibrant dragon dance for the 5,700 delegates. Attendees can expect three days of lectures, discussion and learning opportunities, focused on evidence-based science and patient-centred care and presented by the brightest minds in dentistry. The event also offers an engaging industry exhibition.
The meeting features over 50 globally recognised speakers, who will share their expertise on a range of topics, including soft-tissue management, guided bone regeneration, bone augmentation, immediate implant placement, peri-implantitis and digital workflows. Notable speakers at this premier scientific event in implant dentistry include Prof. Daniel Buser, Prof. Giovanni Zucchelli, Prof. Irena Sailer, Dr Stephen Chen, Dr Helena Francisco, Dr Lisa Heitz-Mayfield and Dr Charlotte Stilwell.
“The ITI has given us so much on protocol and made my treatment success fairly predictable,” attendee Dr Michael Cai from Australia said at the event.
The 2024 ITI World Symposium is not only highlighting innovative dental content and esteemed speakers, but also celebrating the rich culinary diversity of Singapore. Attendees can enjoy live cooking demonstrations by chefs specialising in Chinese, Indian and European cuisines. Additionally, the entire event area is Singapore-themed, immersing attendees in an experience of the essence of this vibrant Asian metropolis.
