Highlights of Research at the Academy of Osseointegration

Posted on Friday, March 28, 2014

More than 2,000 clinicians attended the 29th Annual Meeting of the Academy of Osseointegration (AO), which took place from March 6-8 in Seattle. During the conference, a record number of more than 250 clinicians presented their original research and clinical cases of interest in the field of implant dentistry. AO awarded seven of these clinicians for best abstract poster presentations.

“Research at the AO Annual Meeting squarely focused on how science supports clinicians who are fully committed to providing an evidence-based approach to treatment to ensure the best outcome for their patients,” said Lyndon Cooper, DDS, PhD, the meeting’s scientific program chair who also presented research. “Presentations ranged from digital planning, new esthetic techniques and prevention strategies to molecular strategies and stem cell biology. Abstract presentations explored original scientific and clinical research, clinical innovations and case presentations that could help shape the future of implant dentistry.”

Awards were presented for the following abstract presentations; full abstracts can be viewed here: https://www.osseo.org/2014_review.html.
