Events

Back for its eighth biennial instalment, the International Dental Exhibition and Meeting (IDEM) Singapore 2014 is a "must-attend" for dental practitioners and professionals in the Asia-Pacific looking for the latest cutting edge technology and innovations in dental solutions and services. IDEM Singapore runs from April 4-6, 2014 with a pre-congress day on April 3 at the newly renovated SUNTEC Convention and Exhibition Centre, Singapore.


The conference theme, Dentistry - The Future Is Now focuses on the future of dentistry, addressing the different challenges in the various fields of dentistry.

The conference programme includes Clinical, Scientific, Technological and Practice Management streams with talks presented by leading experts and world renowned speakers.
