I 45 meetings _ CAMLOG Congress I CAD/CAM 2_2012 _4th International CAMLOG Congress Under the motto “Feel the pulse of science in the heart of Switzerland”, CAMLOG had invited all to Lucerne, Switzerland, for the 4th International Congress—and they ALL came. More than 1,300 participants meant a new record attendance in the internal congress ranking of the CAMLOG Group, thatwiththisimpressivesuccessagainunderscored its claim to place among international leaders in implant dentistry. Thestartingshotforcongressactivitieswasgiven onThursday,May3,adaybeforetheactualcongress, with four German/English workshops that had been sold out well in advance. These theoretical and prac- ticaleventsonallaspectsofsoft-tissuemanagement were held at 2,100 meters above sea level on Mount Pilatus,auniquelocationonlyaccessiblebycogwheel railway or aerial cableway with a fascinating view of an ensemble of more than 70 alpine peaks. ThenonMay4and5attheCultureandCongress CenterinLucerneonLakeLucernedirectly,aninter- nationally renowned panel of speakers presented the state-of-the-art of implant dentistry. The range of topics included: _innovations in implant-abutment connections; _long-term clinical experience with platform switching; _the demographic shift and increasingly aging patients; _current trends in digital dentistry; _meet the experts with “complicated” cases/pa- tients, including lively panel discussion. As the concluding participant survey showed, the connection between the scientific content of the first morning of the congress and the practical topicsofFridayafternoonandSaturdaywasviewed as particularly successful and instructive. And not to miss out on the “social networking”, CAMLOG had invited to two raving parties. Both on Friday and Saturday evening, happy congress participants and partygoers made certain that “Let’s rock the Alps” was literally experienced by all attending on the “Rigi”, Lucerne’s “own” mountain. Against the background of this resounding success, the CAMLOG Foundation disclosed im- mediately at the end of the Lucerne congress that the 5th International CAMLOG Congress, for which planning has already started, will be held in Spain in 2014._ Figs. 4 & 5_Lectures at the 4th International CAMLOG Congress.
