11thFADAS2018

Welcome to The 11th Annual Meeting of the Federation of Asian Dental Anesthesiology Societies - FADAS 2018 - website!

The Federation of Asian Dental Anesthesiology Societies (FADAS) is an international conference centered on Japan, China, and South Korea established in 2006, with the aim of developing of Asian dental anesthesiology and international exchange.  Since the first meeting of academic conferences was held in Japan at 2007, we have held general meetings and academic conferences every year in Asian countries. In recent years, dental anesthesiologists are also participating from Taiwan, Singapore, Thailand and Indonesia. The situation surrounding dental anesthesia varies from country to country, but we are actively exchanging views with a variety of themes, including local anesthesia, sedation, general anesthesia, pain clinic, pre and post graduate education.

Dental patients who have systemic diseases are rapidly increasing in Japan due to the progress of dental treatment and aging of the population, dentist anesthesiologist is necessary in order to provide safe treatment to these patients. Now that the wave of aging populates of Asian countries, the role of FADAS will be increasing in the future. In addition, FADAS 2018 (The 11th Annual Meeting of the Federation of Asian Dental Anesthesiology Societies) will be co-hosted with the 15th International Dental Congress on Anesthesia Sedation and Pain Control (IFDAS 2018) and the 46th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Dental Society of Anesthesiology, so the exchange of dental anesthesiologists will become more active around the world and the international exchange in the true meaning will begin.

Nara, the venue for the congress, is an ancient capital like Kyoto representing Japan with many historic buildings such as venerable temples and shrines. Especially, large Buddhist statues exceeding 16 m in total height and the Kasuga Taisha Shrine where you can meet wild deers,  can be said to be one of the highlights of sightseeing in Japan. Please come to Nara in October 2018. Let's deepen international exchange about dental anesthesia to establish safe dental care.
