welcome

On behalf of the Organising Committee, I am delighted to welcome you to the 29th Australian Orthodontic Congress to be held in the beautiful city of Adelaide, South Australia in March, 2024. This will be hopefully be the first face-to-face Australian Congress, post Covid, in 6 years, making it a very special event.

The Congress theme will be Technique and Technology. We anticipate that this Congress will be a dynamic, enjoyable and successful meeting.

Adelaide is a delightful city that can feel sophisticated and intimate at the same time, and is an ideal conference destination. The secrets behind this are our beautiful landscape, the close proximity of many places you will want to visit, our great food and wine, and our renowned hospitality. All of these qualities will be evident in the exciting array of social functions which will accompany the academic programme, making it an event not to be missed.

WE LOOK FORWARD TO WELCOMING YOU NEXT WEEK!

I look forward to seeing you at the 29th Australian Orthodontic Congress in 2024.
