Registration

Your conference registration fee includes admittance to the Thursday welcome reception, exhibit hall, and most educational sessions. Educational sessions are filled on a first-come, first-serve basis, so we strongly encourage you to register early for your preferred sessions.

 

We will hold a Botox class on Thursday, August 14th as part of the Annual Session. In order to participate in this class, you must register for the Annual Session. The cost for the Botox Class is $2,000 which includes the Doctor and one staff person. The course is limited to the first 24 dentists. Once the class is full, we will start a waiting list in case of cancellations.
