Ad Nation’s biggest dental meeting expands By Jayme McNiff Spicciatie Program Manager, GNYDM A number of new events are on the schedule for the 2014 Greater New York Dental Meeting. Among the highlights: • The World Implant Expo, four days of innovations in implantology. This new event will be held simultaneously with the main Greater New York Dental Meet- ing, from Nov. 28 through Dec. 3. • An expanded ColLABoration Dental Laboratory Meeting, bringing together dentists and lab technicians. This dental laboratory meeting, presented with Aegis Publishing, is expected to surpass its in- augural 2013 numbers: 1,183 technicians and technician students and 50 exhibitor booths. • An expanded exhibit floor with more than 1,700 exhibit booths filled by more than 700 companies. The 2014 GNYDM exhibit hall dates are Nov. 30 through Dec. 3. Again for 2014, the GNYDM, which is sponsored by the New York County Dental Society and Second District Dental Societ- ies, will remain free of any registration fee. Other distinctions that help make the GNYDM stand out include: • This is the only major annual dental meeting with a four-day exhibit hall. • The meeting features more than 300 educational programs. • One C.E. unit can be earned simply by exploring the exhibit floor. • The live dentistry arena on the exhibit floor features eight live patient demon- strations during the course of the meet- ing. There is no admission charge. • Multilingual programs are presented in Spanish, Russian, Portuguese, French and Italian. • A laser pavilion features a variety of educational sessions focusing on all as- pects of laser dentistry. Three airports — Newark Liberty (EWR), Kennedy (JFK) and La Guardia (LGA) — and hotel discounts make it easy to at- tend the meeting and enjoy all that New York City has to offer during the holiday season. Preregistration is scheduled to open online in April. Visit www.gnydm.com for more information and the latest update on registration.
