GREETINGS FROM THE PRESIDENT

On behalf of the membership of the Southeastern Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, I invite you to attend our 75th annual meeting which will be held
April 23 – 27 at Casa Marina in Key West, FL.

A legendary landmark destination, Casa Marina embodies the elegance and character of Old Key West, where time passes at a leisurely pace. Enjoy sun-drenched days beckoning you to the largest private beach in Key West and historic spaces where romantic visions of the past become your present. New dining experiences allow guests to be truly immersed in the Key West Island experience. Choose the historic Flagler’s ballroom and terrace, the vibrant Canary Room lobby bar, the elevated barista experience at Morrison’s Market, and the beachfront sophistication of Dorada. Casa Marina has recently renovated all 311 guestrooms, including 63 suites and new beachfront patio suites to accentuate Key West’s tropical allure. New modern amenities and artwork curated from some of Key West’s most popular artists offer a relaxing, contemporary experience.

During our scientific sessions, Dr. Tara Aghaloo will present “Medical Optimization of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Patient: A Surgeons’ Perspective” and “Update on Complicated Implant Procedures and Treatment Alternatives.” Dr. Teresa Biggerstaff will present “Nutritional Impact on Healing Following Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery.” Dr. Rui Fernandez will present “Computer Assisted Surgery and Virtual Planning.”

I look forward to seeing you in the Florida Keys at the beautiful Casa Marina.

Sincerely,

Patrick Louis, DDS, MD
President, Southeastern Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons
