AAPD and Canadian Academy of Pediatric Dentistry Joint Symposium

Partnering with AboutFace Canada, this joint CAPD/ACDP - AAPD conference will focus on a life course of caring for patients with Facial Differences, both congenital and acquired. From early diagnosis, community based Pediatric dentists are often one of the first points of contact for patients with facial differences and become team leaders in the management of these often-complex patients. Dynamic speakers from Canada and the US will guide community based Pediatric Dentists through this life course from prenatal care to harnessing the power of interdisciplinary care teams. Presenters, all of whom have direct experience with the topic of facial differences, will present and participate in panels that will discuss trauma informed care and how Pediatric dentists can transition patients when the timing is right, through the lens of the patient, the family and the profession.
