2015 ADIA WA Dental Show Interest Builds

Across Western Australia's dental community excitement is building for the 2015 ADIA Western Australian Dental Show to be held next week. This boutique regional trade show is convened by the Australian Dental Industry Association (ADIA), the peak business organisation representing manufacturers and suppliers of dental products.

The 2015 ADIA Western Australian Dental Show is being held over 7-8 August 2015 at the Technology Park Function Centre in Bentley, Western Australia.

"We are inviting dental professionals across Western Australia to come along to this event that allows them to meet with leading local suppliers," said Troy Williams, ADIA Chief Executive Officer.

Tailored to the needs of Western Australia's dental community, this event features a trade show where the latest products from Australia and overseas will be displayed and offered for sale by over twenty exhibitors representing several hundred different brands of products and services.

"This event is an excellent example of how ADIA and its members support dental professionals in Western Australia. It's designed for the entire dental team from dentists to hygienists, therapists, prosthetists, dental technicians, dental assistants and practice managers," Mr Williams said.

The 2015 ADIA Western Australian Dental Show welcome reception that is being held on the evening of Friday, 7 August 2015, is already shaping up as a highlight in the local dental community's calendar.

"We couldn't be more pleased with the level of support dentists and allied oral healthcare professionals across Western Australia have given this event. A state-based event of this nature has almost no local parallel and the decision by our members to commit to it has been vindicated," Mr Williams said.

A companion continuing professional development program offered by the University of Western Australia and leading local businesses is also a key part of the event.

"The 2015 ADIA Western Australian Dental Show provides dentists and allied oral healthcare professionals with the perfect opportunity to not only see the latest products, but also attend a seminar to maintain their skills currency," Mr Williams said.

There is no cost to attend the 2015 ADIA Western Australian Dental Show and tickets to the companion continuing professional development program can be purchased separately via the website at www.adia.org.au/wa.show
