Organized by Dr. Joël Beyeler (Switzerland), Dr. Ulrike Kuchler (Austria/Switzerland) and Dr. Jordi Caballé (Spain/Switzerland) and sponsored by Straumann and Geistlich, this year's meeting was supported by members of UIC Barcelona's Department of Oral and Maxillofacial, including Dr. Jordi Gargallo, Director of the International Master’s Degree Programme in Oral Surgery. The results presented by the members of the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery from UIC Barcelona's Faculty of Dentistry were very well received. The organizers have already announced that the third meeting will be held in Vienna, following on from the success of the events in Barcelona and Bern.
