Invitation<br />
Dear Colleague,<br />
We look forward to welcoming you to Istanbul for the 101st <strong>FDI</strong><br />
Annual <strong>World</strong> <strong>Dental</strong> Congress and Exhibition. This year’s scientific<br />
programme promises to be outstanding with internationally<br />
renowned speakers and we have also scheduled another series<br />
of the highly successful ‘early morning’ and ‘meet the expert’<br />
sessions, first introduced in 2012.<br />
Industry symposia are also on the programme. The Congress<br />
will cater equally to the needs of local, regional and international<br />
participants. Early signs are that the Congress exhibition will<br />
also be a record breaker, with well over half the 5,000 m 2<br />
space already reserved.<br />
<strong>FDI</strong> 2013 Istanbul is jointly organized by our two<br />
organizations: <strong>FDI</strong> <strong>World</strong> <strong>Dental</strong> <strong>Federation</strong> and the<br />
Turkish <strong>Dental</strong> Association.<br />
<strong>FDI</strong>, with some 200 member national dental<br />
associations and specialist groups from more than 130<br />
countries, serves as the principal representative body for<br />
over one million dentists worldwide.<br />
The Turkish <strong>Dental</strong> Association (TDA) is the collective ‘voice’<br />
of nearly 24.000 dentists and the country’s regulatory body<br />
for dentistry.<br />
preliminary programme Istanbul 2013<br />
Istanbul needs little introduction: straddling the Bosphorous—<br />
one of the world’s busiest waterways—it is Turkey’s cultural<br />
capital, former seat of four empires and, today, an attractive<br />
destination for international meetings, boasting a brand<br />
new state-of-the-art convention centre and wide choice of<br />
world-class hotels and other accommodation.<br />
Easily accessible by road rail, sea and air, Istanbul offers<br />
the visitor an unforgettable experience with its colourful<br />
neighbourhoods, warm, sunny climate, especially in<br />
late August, hospitable local population and superb<br />
cuisine and entertainment.<br />
We trust an outstanding congress, a wonderful venue, and<br />
expert organizers will make this the must event in dentistry in<br />
2013. Join us in Istanbul 28 to 31 August!<br />

Istanbul, Turkey - a voyage of discovery<br />
Istanbul: a cultural treasure chest<br />
Istanbul is a veritable cultural treasure chest and <strong>FDI</strong> and local<br />
partner the Turkish <strong>Dental</strong> Association are proud to present<br />
congress goers with a wide variety of local tours to savour the<br />
city’s sights, sounds and history in a series of tours<br />
On the water<br />
Visitors can cruise eastwards the world-renowned Strait of<br />
Bosphorus, viewing along the way Ottoman summer palaces<br />
and a 15th century fortress pre-dating the arrival of Sultan<br />
Mehmet the Conqueror, or westwards the Sea of Marmara to<br />
Princes' Islands, once the pleasure island of Byzantine Princes,<br />
today a popular summer resort.<br />
On land<br />
Visitors can marvel at the splendours of Istanbul’s past such<br />
as the 5th century Hagia Sophia Museum and the 17th<br />

Turkey: unique landscapes, historic<br />
events<br />
Unique landscapes<br />
Turkey offers visitors a land of unique<br />
landscapes, among them Cappadocia, with its<br />
unique, spectacular, surrealistic and multihued<br />
‘Fairy Chimneys’, with Christian chapels and<br />
monasteries hollowed out of the rock during<br />
Byzantine times, later serving as a refuge for<br />
Christians, persecuted by the Romans.<br />
A journey through history<br />
Part of Turkey’s long and varied history in on display<br />
at Ephesus, with its extensive Roman ruins and,<br />
nearby, the reputed last home of the Virgin Mary,<br />
at Pergamum, with its Acropolis, Altar of Zeus, and<br />
precipitous theatre, and at Asclepion, one of the<br />
foremost medical centres of the ancient world.<br />
Legend and reality<br />
Turkey is a land of legend, home to the ancient city of<br />
Troy, its beautiful queen Helen and the Trojan horse. It is<br />
also the land of Gallipoli, the famous <strong>World</strong> War I battlefield,<br />
and its memorials, which are particularly moving to visitors<br />
from Australia and New Zealand.<br />
