2020 marks 120 years for ¾ÛÐÇÌåÓý World Dental Federation
¾ÛÐÇÌåÓý World Dental Federation was founded by French dentist Dr Charles Godon in 1900. Over the past 120 years, ¾ÛÐÇÌåÓý and the wider global oral health community have significantly evolved, from ¾ÛÐÇÌåÓý recommending that governments establish the position of Chief Dental Officers in 1926 to the adoption of an official, globally recognized oral health definition in 2016. This anniversary offers ¾ÛÐÇÌåÓý the opportunity to take stock of the global progress made to lead the world to optimal health, while also planning for the future.
Celebrating in Shanghai from 1 to 4 September 2020
This year, ¾ÛÐÇÌåÓý plans to commemorate its 120-year anniversary at the World Dental Congress in Shanghai from 1 to 4 September. There will be a special exhibition dedicated to this milestone anniversary at the ¾ÛÐÇÌåÓý booth, including a variety of anniversary-branded giveaways.
Stay tuned for more details throughout the year.
