Welcome to the American Prosthodontic Society (APS)!
Dear Members and Friends,
On behalf of APS Executive Board, it is my pleasure to welcome you on our website. It was great to see so many of you in Chicago last February. Our meeting attendees were over 450, looks like the tough days of pandemic are finally recovered. The APS has a long tradition of successful meetings, and we are busy working on our next year 96th Meeting.
Since 1928 we have been deeply committed to our mission: to improve patient care and the advancement of Prosthodontics through Education and Research. We are a special group of people: the inclusiveness, at the core values of our Society, makes our APS Family stronger together as we integrate general practitioners, dental technologists and specialists as equals. It is through the hard work of our members and leaders that this has been possible for over nine decades.
The upcoming 96th Annual Meeting will deal with the topic of proper prosthodontic treatment according to patient’s age. The title of the meeting “Prosthodontics through life stages” will bring together in Chicago world renowned experts. From diagnosis and treatment planning of adolescents prosthodontic problems, like agenesis and malformations, to the management of esthetic and functional needs of the adult patients, to the well-being of our senior patients: a 360 degrees approach to the evolving needs of patients through different life stages with Gerard Chiche, Christian Coachman, Gregg Kinzer and Jim Janakievski, Francesca Vailati, Tal Morr, Galip Gurel, German Gallucci, Wael Att, Oded Bahat, Brian Goodacre, Frauke Müller. This stellar line up of speakers will deliver a solid, innovative, clinical and evidence-based weekend of knowledge to take home and benefit our patients.
It is my privilege and pleasure to welcome you to an exciting year of APS webinars, membership enhanced communications and a very anticipated 2025 Annual Meeting!
Please join your APS Family to celebrate life and friendship on February 20 and 21, 2025. We have a long story to share, and we are looking forward to becoming part of your story. See you in Chicago!
Carlo Poggio
President, American Prosthodontic Society
