The FDI World Dental Congress (WDC), one of the world’s premier events for the oral health profession, will take place in Shanghai, China, from September 9–12, 2025, co-hosted by Chinese Stomatological Association and Reed Sinopharm Exhibitions. Organized annually in different countries, the WDC highlights the importance of oral health in securing overall health and well-being and serves as a driving force for international collaboration in dentistry.
In recent years, visa-free policies have made China an increasingly popular destination for global travelers. This enhanced accessibility, coupled with Shanghai’s global appeal, and FDI’s established reputation as the leading global dental event, has already attracted over 10,000 congress delegates for the 2025 edition, with expectations of more than 35,000 professional attendees and visitors from 134 countries and regions.
Attendees can look forward to a robust scientific program packed with insights from over 300 world-class speakers and interactive forums on key dental topics. Meanwhile, the FDI WDC 2025 Exhibition is set to be the largest in FDI history, featuring 700 selected exhibitors across 60,000 square meters. Leading global brands such as Haleon, Listerine, LION, and Colgate, along with hundreds of Chinese manufacturers and technology providers, will showcase the most advanced dental equipment and solutions. The exhibition will also spotlight achievements from hospitals and universities, innovations in AI-powered diagnostics, digital dentistry, and 3D printing, providing state-of-the-art solutions to participants.
Additionally, the Congress promises exceptional networking opportunities through guided tours designed to connect researchers, clinicians, industry experts, and distributors, fostering partnerships that can advance oral health globally.
