This will mark the 10th Anni- versary of CAD CAM & Digital Dentistry International Confer- ences in Dubai. Almost 20 years after the first CAD/CAM system was present- ed on the market with big en- thusiasm, passion and belief in digitalizing of dentistry, CAPP- mea started its first CAD/CAM and Computerized Dentistry Int’l Conference in Middle East ten years ago. Together with a group of believers such as Dr. Munir Silwadi, Dr. Aisha Sul- tan, Dr. Omar Adeeb, CAPPmea started the unique event with the support of 3M ESPE, Sirona, KaVo, Etkon and the UAE Minis- try of Health. Through the pas- sion of these leaders and sup- porters, what has been achieved today is the result of ten years of continuing dental education focused on Digital Dentistry. To- day more than 15,000 dentists and dental technicians have been educated in digital den- tistry by CAPPmea over the past decade. When I started the CAPPmea over a decade ago, I couldn’t have imagined that I will be writing this post to all of you. But here we are, greater and strong- er than ever before. It is really 10 years since we organized our 1st CAD/CAM & Comput- erized Dentistry International Conference and invited our first contributors to join us, most of which are still with us. Back in 2005, I had a vision for what I wanted CAPPmea to be- come – a company that was professionally close to the cli- ent, fun, recognizable and in- novational. I can say that we have achieved this through the hard work of our colleagues, sponsors, partners and support- ers. CAPPmea has been able to establish a first-class standard for continuing dental educa- tion programs in Dubai for the MEA region. Our very 1st CAD/ CAM & Computerized Den- tistry International Conference summed it up successfully. I am proud to say that we have estab- lished and achieved a balance during all those years and con- tinue to do so with every organ- ized event. Those attending the upcom- ing 10th edition of the symbolic CAD/CAM & Digital Dentistry Int’l Conference will have the pleasure to see for the first time the new dental high-tech- nologies post IDS. The event is packed with 17 international Key Opinion Leaders, 19 breath- taking scientific presentations and 8 hands-on courses where attendees will be able to prac- tice on topics such as Advanced Anterior Composites, Indirect Inlays, Onlays & Partial Crowns, Non-Prep Veneers, Emergence Profile, Tibases, Abutment Se- lection, proper Temporization, Bone Tissue, Indirect Veneers, Biological Preparations for CAD/CAM and non CAD/CAM Restorations as well as Chair- side Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics and Implant crown/abutment design. The scientific program has ac- creditation from three impor- tant bodies, HAAD, DHA and ADA C.E.R.P. Centre for Ad- vanced Professional Practices (CAPP) is an ADA C.E.R.P. Rec- ognized Provider.

The long journey to the 10th Anniversary came along with plenty of challenges of run- ning behind the incredibly fast growing industry and techno- logical developments. A decade ago one could not even imag- ine such kind of opportunities which are now available and changing the face of dentistry, whilst improving patient care.
