Registration

All requests for registration cancellations/refunds must be made in writing and received no later than Monday, April 15th (a $25 cancellation fee will be applied). After this date, no refunds will be granted.
All courses and events require pre-registration. Your badge will provide access to the courses via the QR code printed on the badge. NO INDIVIDUAL TICKETS REQUIRED FOR COURSES.

Badges will NOT be mailed this year. Printers are available on-site for you to pick up your badge and other free tickets. All you need is your name or email confirmation.

Courses

We use a course code system to make registration easy. The course code noted with each description is used to make your selections on the registration form or when you are ready to register online. Please note: all courses are lecture format unless stated otherwise in the description (i.e. workshop or hands-on).

As you flip through the program guide, you’ll see that each course includes a “recommended audience” notation. Here are the codes to help you make choices that are best suited for you:
D = Dentists
H = Hygienists
A = Assistants
O = Office Staff
L = Lab Technicians
ALL = All attendees

Any handouts that have been made available to us will be available as downloads via the Mobile App in April. If you wish to have them with you on-site, be sure to print them and bring them with you.
Course locator sheets will be available on-site at the
information kiosks indicating meeting room locations and times and each room will have the appropriate
signage just outside the entryways. This information will also be available within the mobile app!
CE credit hours are noted with each course description throughout this booklet. Your badge will be scanned upon entering the course as proof of attendance. CE forms will be emailed to the address that you registered with within 30 days of the conference.
Please be sure your badge is scanned into your courses as this will ensure you are counted as attending the
session in full and will receive your corresponding certificate. CE certificates will be sent via email
30 days post event to the same email address you registered with.
