On behalf of the Australasian Osseointegration Society (AOS) and the Australian Prosthodontic Society (APS), it is our absolute pleasure to invite you to our upcoming biannual conference, set to take place in vibrant Melbourne from the 6th to the 8th of August, 2026.

This year’s theme, Beyond the Horizon, speaks to the spirit of bold innovation and forward thinking. It’s about challenging assumptions, questioning limits, and elevating our practice to what lies just beyond the visible. Dentistry is evolving rapidly, and this conference is designed to be a platform where we don’t just keep pace - we lead the charge into what’s next.

In designing this event, we’ve taken a fresh approach to every detail. We’ve extended keynote presentation times, allowing our world-class speakers the space to truly deliver depth, nuance, and insights. Our aim is to offer lots of substance, giving attendees the richest learning experience possible.

The format of the conference will also be unique. Each core topic will feature two complementary or alternative viewpoints. These sessions will culminate in a dynamic panel discussion, encouraging critical dialogue and deeper understanding. We believe this “point-counterpoint-panel” format will stimulate lots of discussion and allow us to see different perspectives represented.

Equally important is our carefully curated speaker lineup. We are focused on hosting international leaders in their fields who have not recently spoken in Australia. This ensures attendees gain access to fresh voices, global perspectives, and cutting-edge knowledge that may not be available anywhere else in the region.

Behind the scenes, we are investing enormous time, care, and passion to make this the most exceptional conference to date, one that will not only meet your expectations but exceed them. From the structure and theme to the speakers, debates, and discussions, every aspect is being meticulously planned to deliver a truly transformative experience.

Whether you’re a seasoned clinician or early in your dental career, this is a conference not to be missed. We are confident that Beyond the Horizons will set a new benchmark in the Australasian dental conference circuit - a celebration of innovation, insight, and the power of shared knowledge.

We cannot wait to welcome you in Melbourne in 2026. Let’s go beyond, together.
