Important Announcement
The IAPD Board of Directors has announced the postponement of the 2nd Global Summit, Global Pathway to Evidence-Based Dental Caries Management in Children, which was set to take place from 6-8 November 2020 in Taipei, Taiwan.
We are all facing an unprecedented global impact with the Covid-19 crisis and what the future will hold for the months to come is still unclear.
With the global pandemic still accelerating in several areas of the world, this decision was made with the safety of participants and our global communities firmly in mind.
The new date for the event is likely to be early in 2022. We will provide an update as soon as a new date has been confirmed.
