The Foundation is convinced that scientists, practitioners, and the industry require an interface where they can exchange specialist knowledge and ideas as well as promoting progress in implant dentistry and related fields. And the focus is always on the patient. The Foundation has financed more than 140 scientific projects, studies, and grants, as well as promoting continuous training and further education. In addition, a Foun- dation Research Award has been created which is awarded every two years and is endowed with a total of EUR 20,000. The Foundation will remain true to its leading theme “Science – Education – Patient” under its new name of Oral Reconstruction Foundation. This interaction is reflected in the new logo. Furthermore, the Oral Reconstruction Foundation supports and organizes national symposia and the Oral Reconstruction Foundation will be responsible for what was previously the International CAMLOG Congress, which will be held from April 26 to 28, 2018, in Rotterdam, Netherlands . Save the date now. If you wish to attend one of our national events in the German-speaking region this year, you have the opportunity of partici- pating on September 22 and 23 2017 at the event “Update Implant Dentistry: Bet- ter is the enemy of good” in Wimsheim.

Further information is available at www.orfoundation.org Following its renaming as the Oral Reconstruction Foundation and the resulting independence from the company, the foundation is now open to extended areas in dentistry as well as for collaborations for advancing scientific research in the field of oral reconstruction.
