2008 Call for Scientific Abstracts


Call for Scientific Abstracts

Hispanic Dental Association 16th Annual Meeting

The Hispanic Dental Association is currently calling for Scientific Abstracts for Poster Presentations at its Annual Meeting in Carefree, Arizona, November 13 - 15, 2008.
Abstracts should be related to the oral health of the Hispanic population and/or the 5-point framework in the Surgeon Generals Report on Oral Health:

  • Access to health care as a leading health indicator
  • Build an effective health infrastructure that meets the oral health needs of all Americans, and integrates oral health effectively into overall health
  • Remove known barriers between people and oral health services
  • Use public-private partnerships to improve the oral health of those who still suffer disproportionately from oral diseases
  • The type, amount, and quality of health people receive.

In addition, other compelling and provocative issues related to Hispanic Oral Health can be submitted.  Submitted abstracts should follow the IADR Abstracts Submission Format. A sample is available from the HDA office. Applicants should provide abstract on a disk or via e-mail to rbrummett@hdassoc.org by August 29, 2008.

HDA members are encouraged to share this Call for Abstracts with colleagues.
