World Dental Congress 2024

Tarık İşmen - TDA President

Distingiushed Colleagues,

FDI World Dental Congress, which is widely considered as the world dental olympics, will be held in Türkiye in September 2024.

After the congress we held in 2013, which has gone down in FDI’s history as a first-class event, it is a milestone decision by the FDI Board to assign this task to us once again.

We will be honored to host you in Istanbul in September 2024 at this occasion, which will be the biggest congress in continental Europe after Australia since the COVID-19 pandemic.

It will be a pleasure for us to host you at the most important cradle of civilizations and history, at the intersection of continents, and offer you the unique beauty of Anatolia and the honored tradition of hospitality which has been the joint legacy of the humanity across thousands of years.

“Life is a poem of learnings.”

Refreshing our knowledge, discovering innovations and sharing them with the humanity are vital for us, dental professionals, as well as indications of the fact that we are a part of life.

We invite you to join us in Istanbul, Türkiye, to discover together the latest developments in the ever-changing world of dental practice, to establish new friendships and reunite with the old friends while visiting new horizons in this magical city.
And we highly recommend that you spare a good number of days for the congress because you will not want to leave Istanbul.

We are looking forward to hosting you with friendship and love.

We are expecting to seeing you.


Greg Chadwick - DDS, MS - FDI President
