About APADENTO

Asia Pacific Association for Dental and Oral Health is one of the leading professional associations committed to improving dental & oral health by promoting advanced science-based evidence through our initiatives in education and research. Oral and general health are related and are a key indicator of overall health, well-being, and quality of life. Dental caries, periodontal (gum) disease, tooth loss, oral cancer, oral manifestations of multiple illnesses, oral dental trauma, noma, and birth defects such as cleft lip and palate are among the diseases and conditions covered.

The leading noncommunicable diseases share modifiable risk factors with most oral diseases and conditions (cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and chronic respiratory diseases). Tobacco use, alcohol intake, and unhealthy diets rich in free sugars are among the risk factors, all of which are on the rise globally.

APADENTO meets with its objectives through academic networking, meetings, conferences, projects, publications, academic awards and scholarships. APAO strives to enrich from its diverse group of advisory members. APAO delivers access to its members the industry's most essential information by organizing conferences, workshops, annual convention meeting and provides networking opportunities both locally and globally.
