Sessions will feature clinical education, emerging research, AI discussions, and professional development for surgeons and teams.

The American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS) will host the 108th AAOMS Annual Meeting, Scientific Sessions, and Exhibition from Sept. 28 to Oct. 3, 2026, in Seattle, Wash. Events will take place at the Seattle Convention Center Summit and the Hyatt Regency Seattle.

As the largest educational conference dedicated exclusively to oral and maxillofacial surgeons (OMSs) and their teams, the 2026 Annual Meeting will convene thousands of OMS professionals from across the United States and around the world. This year’s event centers on the theme Together We Thrive: Celebrating Family and Our OMS Community, reflecting the specialty’s commitment to collaboration, mentorship, and shared purpose in patient care.

“This year’s theme reflects the strength of the relationships that define our specialty,” said AAOMS President Robert S. Clark, DMD. “From residents entering the field to surgeons at the forefront of innovation, the Annual Meeting brings our community together to learn, connect, and reaffirm the shared purpose that unites us in caring for patients.”

Showcasing clinical innovation and expertise, educational programming will span eight clinical tracks covering 11 topics across the oral and maxillofacial scope of practice, including anesthesia, dental implants, dentoalveolar, orthognathic, pediatrics and pathology, reconstruction and nerve, temporomandibular joint, and trauma and cosmetic. Each track will feature evidence-based presentations, case-based roundtable discussions, and the latest clinical research.
