Organizing committee

Within three years of its existence, the Ukrainian Academy of Periodontology has become a dynamic, active and respectable organization that develops periodontology in Ukraine. Together with you, we have created the Academy with a dream of establishing periodontology and taking its rightful place among dental specialties in Ukraine. Moreover, we wanted periodontology to become the foundation of dental treatment since oral health begins with the health of periodontal tissues.
And we can proudly say that we are confidently moving towards our goal. Now everyone is talking about the perio. Teeth preservation has become a priority not only among a huge number of doctors but also among patients.
Now it's time to take the next big step in the development of periodontology in Ukraine by organizing a large-scale international periodontal congress in Kyiv. Two legendary personalities will be the Head of Scientific Committee as both prof. Niklaus Land and prof. Mariano Sanz planned the program of the congress and have chosen the best speakers.
First International congress of Ukrainian Academy of Periodontology is more that 30 well-know speakers from all around the words, 1000+ participants, 3 parallel sessions, 10 workshops, impressive exhibition, poster session, a new format of clinical cases presentation and, last but not least, unforgettable party.
Furthermore, we are planning to organize this congress on a regular basis and we are sure that it will become one of the key events in the field of periodontology in Eastern Europe. Together we can to it!
We invite you to Kyiv on April 8-10 2021 to become a part of the history of the development of periodontology in Ukraine.

The Ukrainian Academy of Periodontology is a relatively young association with great hopes and ambitions to improve the practice of periodontics in the Ukraine. This first congress is an attempt to disseminate the up-to-date concepts in clinical periodontology.
An interesting and very effective format has been chosen by the scientific organizing committee. Besides the usual magistral lectures, multidisciplinary sessions are scheduled that all are introduced by international speakers of high reputation.
Following this, Ukrainian colleagues will present their view on the multidisciplinary topics. This format guarantees that the congress will not only be of high quality, but of high clinical relevance.Every Ukrainian colleague should gather in this unique event.
Together with Prof. Mariano Sanz from the Complutense University of Madrid, I am privileged to help, promote and recommend this professional event. In the last decade, I was able to witness the progress that young Ukrainians were making and I feel that the Ukraine will be on the map of the better and more active national societies within Europe. Hence, it is evident that nobody should miss the opportunity to experience this high caliber congress.
I hope to see you in Kiew on April 8-10, 2021.
