The inaugural symposium of the British Society of Oral Implantology combined with the launch of the European Journal of Oral Implantology, the official publication of the BSOI was a landmark event in implant dentistry in the UK. Delegates attending were rewarded with a range of outstanding presentations based on the theme "Getting it Right - from Training to Treatment" and the event was very well supported by exhibitors from the dental trade. A full report will be available in the next edition of the EJOI.
