After the scientific programme came to a close on the second congress day, participants were in- vited to a gala evening at Domaine Villate Limoune. The beautiful farm offered a festive setting for the evening’s gala dinner and the presentation of certif- icates. At the evening event, Dr Rolf Vollmer once again thanked the President and the Vice Presi- dent of Universiapolis for the excellent organisation provided by all involved. Thanks also went to DGZI representative Dr Ali Elmalih, who had once himself successfully participated at one of the DGZI post- graduate programmes. A second German Maghreb Countries Meeting of Dental Implantology is intended to be held on 30 and 31 March 2018._ contact DGZI Central Office Paulusstraße 1 40237 Düsseldorf, Germany Tel.: +49 211 16970-77 sekretariat@dgzi-info.de www.dgzi.de About the society Fig. 5: Dr Navid Salehi (right) and dental technician Michael Anger (second from right) were also speakers in Agadir. opportunity to widen one’s own knowledge and gain another perspective on this specialist field, Dr Vollmer said. The scientific programme was complemented by two workshops held by Dr Mazen Tamimi as well as Dr Arzu Tuna and Dr Umut Baysal. Dr Tamimi provided his workshop for implantswiss®, while Dr Tuna and Dr Baysal were sponsored by MIS Implants®. Fully booked with more than 45 participants, those prac- tical sections of the congress were met with great in- terest. Dr Tuna and Dr Baysal addressed a variety of interesting questions in detail and provided a great deal of practical advice to the highly engaged work- shop participants. The lectures, however, dealt with more general medical aspects such as patient guidance, risk of bleeding, diabetes and implant surgical techniques, e.g. sinus lift, treatment in the atrophic jaw as well as aesthetical and minimally-invasive treatments. In addition, keynote speaker Michael Anger intro- duced on day two of the congress the use of new and innovative materials in dental technology, hence covering the technical field of dental prosthetic. Keynote speaker of the first day was oral surgeon Dr Dr Manfred Nilius, M.Sc. who skilfully illustrated digitalisation in dental implantology and cosmetic surgery. Concluding his presentation, Dr Dr Nilius pointed out that “without a perfect coordination between the different specialties and fields of ex- pertise, an excellent result can never be achieved”. Dr Vollmer agreed with the statement, poignantly adding: “You always get what you plan.” Also from Germany, members of the New Gener- ation study group, amongst them Dr Navid Salehi, Dr Rabi Omari, Dr Christopher Stüber, Dr Rainer Valentin and Dr Martina Vollmer, had been travel- ling to Agadir to participate in the event. The first successful day ended with a get-together and a speakers’ dinner. Fig. 5 implants 3 2017 53
