Dear Colleagues,

Let me welcome all of you on behalf of VII Quintessence International Symposium, which this year will take place on May 19-20, 2012.

Our Symposium is truly considered the most remarkable scientific and educational dental event in Russia and former countries of Soviet Union. To my mind, it is the only scientific forum which creates a unique opportunity for Russian dentists to get the significant (both volume and quality wise) latest update on world most improved and innovative diagnostic and treatment techniques in dentistry. Meanwhile, it is a real chance for them to meet in person with the world leading specialists of entire scope of dental profession.

This year the Symposium international speaker team will consist of clinicians from USA, Europe, Israel and Russia, they will share the results of the latest findings and share the most interesting clinical cases.

This year the Quintessence Symposium in Moscow will be a very special one due to a new, unique venue – the SKOLKOVO Moscow School of Management.

I am personally deeply impressed by the inspiration of the School founders, which together with the architectural talent of its creators made up an extremely modern, multifunctional educational complex influenced by the paintings of Kazimir Malevich.

I believe, that this fact underlines the highly innovative behavior of both SKOLKOVO School and Quintessence Symposium.

I am sure, that both a scientific congress and a the dental exhibition will offer something new and interesting to any dental professional.

In 2012, the scientific program covers four areas of high interest: Implantology/Periodontology, Endodontics, Orthodontics and Dental Lab sessions.

You are cordially invited to attend this seminal event in the Russian capital.

Looking forward to seeing you in SKOLKOVO on May 2012!

Prof. Carlo Zappala
Scientific Chairman of the Symposium
