In addition to a stunning location, we hope to offer you education, entertainment and
camaraderie. On Thursday, September 24 we will once again be offering exciting pre-
courses. Information will be forwarded as soon as the details are finalized.
Our educational theme for 2020 is simple - can we manage dental caries in the pediatric
population medically? Is there merit to not drilling and filling? We begin our scientific
program on Friday September 25 th with Dr. Brian Novy – speaking on “The Plaque
Monologues” and “The Potty Mouth Predicament”.
Saturday is filled with practical applications from Dr. Novy’s talks. Drs. Manwai Ng and
Francisco Ramos-Gomez will be discussing “Supporting and Practical Strategies for ECC
disease prevention and management”. Dr. Robert Lucas will be discussing “Practical
prevention – Let’s get real with parents!”

LOC Chair
We have two exceptional social events to offer you. Friday evening is our traditional Welcome Reception. In
Whistler, the reception will take place in the Longhorn Saloon, which is located minutes form the hotel and in the
heart of the village. It’s a great jumping point for your evening to begin with drinks and appetizers, as there are
many world class restaurants and bars just steps away.
This year we will be honouring Dr. Raymond Lee with the annual president’s dinner on Saturday night. The dinner
will take place at the spectacular Audain Art Museum. Our group will have access to view the many historic and
cultural treasures as well as take in the stunning architectural building prior to the dinner. After dinner we have
Whistler’s favourite band “The Hairfarmers” for your entertainment.
