It is my great privilege to extend a warm welcome to all ANZAP members to attend the 2025 ANZAP Scientific Meeting. The Meeting promises to be a remarkable experience, featuring a line-up of international keynote speakers, alongside our very own esteemed national speakers.
The Meeting will serve as a platform for knowledge exchange, networking, as well as fostering a close-knit community of periodontists.
This Meeting embodies the spirit of collaboration, learning, and camaraderie that defines ANZAP. It is an opportunity to celebrate our shared passion for periodontology and to recognize the outstanding work being done by our colleagues both at home and abroad.
I encourage each of you to actively participate, engage in discussions, and make the most of this exceptional event. It is through events like these that we are not only further our professional development but also strengthen the bonds that unite us as ANZAP members.
I would like to express my gratitude to the organising and scientific committees, our sponsors, and all those who have worked to make this meeting possible.
I look forward to seeing each of you, sharing knowledge, and celebrating the vitality and innovation that defines our Academy.
Warm regards,
Tino Mercado
