The 10th anniversary of the BCNOrtho meeting happens this week in Barcelona. Digital orthodontics is already here, and many advances in three-dimensional imaging, design, and printing make this technology very useful in every dentist’s office. This edition of BCNOrtho will be full of clinical techniques and advice based on the many years of experience of their lecturers. Through the lessons learned over the last ten years they will paint a picture of the next ten years of orthodontic “state of the art” advances.

The event will take place at the AXA Auditorium, 22-23 September, 2017
