Featuring an outstanding line-up of cutting-edge speakers, exhibitors, products and services
MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
Over the years, the ODA Annual Spring Meeting has provided an important forum designed to meet the professional needs of the entire dental team. The diverse scientific and general education program brings together speakers renowned in their fields from many locations in Canada and the United States. This important membership benefit allows each ODA member and their staff to conveniently accrue mandatory continuing education credits. Another integral component of this annual dental education forum is the vast exhibit floor where attendees can view the very latest in products, technology, and services. Walking the exhibit floor gives you the chance to speak directly with a wide range of suppliers. Nothing can compare with face to face dialogue – yet another educational component to enhance and expand your professional horizons. We continue to hear from ASM participants that the exhibits are an important part of the ASM and I encourage you to visit the exhibit floor. I invite you to join me at Canada’s premier dental education forum in May 2005–the 138th Annual Spring Meeting of the Ontario Dental Association. I hope to see you at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. Please stop by the ODA Booth, at the top of the escalator, to say hello.
Steve Goren, DMS
President, ODA
