Annual meeting of the German Society for Orthodontics

Dear colleague,

our annual scientific conference will take place from September 25th to 28th, 2024 in Freiburg im Breisgau. I would like to introduce you to this together with the conference president, Prof. Dr. Britta Jung from the Albert Ludwig University of Freiburg would like to extend a warm welcome. With the Freiburg trade fair, the trinational metropolitan region of Upper Rhine not only offers excellent conditions for our annual congress, but also a wide range of cultural opportunities.

For the 96th Annual Scientific Conference, the conference president has appropriately chosen the guiding theme “Advances in orthodontics through synergy and diversity” and is thus placing a particular focus on the diverse therapeutic and technological possibilities of orthodontics in the context of dental, orofacial rehabilitation and general health maintenance.

The first main topic focuses on current developments in technology and treatment with a discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of digital workflows in orthodontics. The second main topic is under the motto “Healthy and fit through orthodontics” and places orthodontic measures in the context of general health.

The diversity of orthodontic research activities on clinical issues and in the area of ​​basic science can be experienced in the free lectures and poster contributions, and the parallel symposium as a platform for our young talent will once again enrich our annual conference in a proven way.

This year, two full-day courses will also be offered as a pre-conference. A preliminary congress with the focus on “Current interdisciplinary therapy concepts in orthodontics and periodontology” will be organized by colleagues Dr. Göllner and the Professors Katsaros and Sculean held together. The second full-day English-language pre-conference on the technology-oriented topic “Shape Memory and aligner mechanics” will be hosted by Prof. Dr. Ravindra Nanda from Farmington / USA designed.

The day for the practice team complements the program and this year is dedicated to the question “How and why orthodontics works”, which Prof. Dr. Dr. Ralf Radlanski from Berlin will answer.

At the trade exhibition accompanying the conference, all visitors also have the opportunity to find out about current innovations and developments in the dental industry and to get to know them in a compact form on site.

I am therefore very pleased to be able to welcome you personally on behalf of the German Society for Orthodontics at the Freiburg Trade Fair for our 2024 annual conference.

With kind regards

, Prof. Dr. Dr. Peter Prof
- President of the German Society for Orthodontics –
