Hello! Olá! Bem-vindos!

Welcome to the official website of the 2026 Oral Health Research Congress, proudly hosted by the Continental European Division (CED-IADR) in collaboration with the Scandinavian Division (NOF-IADR) of the International Association for Dental, Oral, and Craniofacial Research.

We are delighted to invite you to Lisbon, Portugal, from September 3–5, 2026, for what promises to be an exciting and inspiring scientific event. Lisbon, one of the oldest cities in Europe, with its warm hospitality, rich cultural heritage, and breathtaking waterfront views, offers a truly remarkable setting for this year’s congress.

Our venue, the Meeting Centre at the Centro Cultural de Belém, lies at the heart of the historic Belém district, between the magnificent Jerónimos Monastery and the iconic Belém Tower. Overlooking the Tagus River, this modern architectural and cultural landmark offers an exceptional environment for collaboration and learning, embodying Lisbon's distinctive character as a vibrant hub where tradition merges with innovation.

Over the course of three days, you will have the opportunity to present and explore cutting-edge research in oral health. The congress will feature keynote lectures, symposia, oral and poster presentations, and interactive workshops—including special sessions hosted by young CED-IADR ambassadors—with contributions from leading researchers across Europe and beyond.

In addition to the scientific agenda, we invite all participants to enjoy Lisbon’s mild climate, rich maritime heritage, and exceptional cuisine. You will have the chance to network, connect, and celebrate with the CED-IADR and NOF community throughout the event.

As always, you are warmly invited to the CED-IADR/NOF Welcoming Ceremony & Reception, which will be held on Thursday evening at a special venue in Belém. Don’t miss the Friday Get-Together, where we’ll continue the conversations in one of Lisbon’s most iconic social settings.

Mark your calendars and join us for three days of science, networking, and discovery in one of Europe’s most captivating cities.

We look forward to welcoming you to Lisbon in September 2026!

Yours sincerely,
