OUR PHILOSOPHY
Over the past many years, Queensland Dental Group events have been opened by State Ministers and Members of Parliament on fifteen occasions and have seen delegates from across Australia, New Zealand and beyond engage in exceptional CPD. In approaching the 50th event Milestone in 2022, the Queensland Dental Group’s underlying philosophies remain strong, namely to seek leading experts from a range of disciplines to join us in fine surroundings and importantly without any sponsors. These philosophies make QDG events a unique experience within the Australasia region. We remain focused in offering our speakers a level playing field. Dental CE the way it’s meant to be.
