Overview

The Booy Foundation organizes the ‘Grand Final’ congress of the European Begg Society of Orthodontics (EBSO) in Amsterdam, the Netherlands: ORTHO-AMSTERDAM 2024!

Amsterdam is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Europe. Known as the ‘Venice of the North’ for its 165 canals, the city’s most famous sight is its well-preserved and appealing 17th-century architecture. You can enjoy the winding canals, idyllic bridges, and historic buildings. Amsterdam also offers an extreme variety of shops, markets, and the famous red light district.

Sixteen eminent international invited speakers will present the latest advancements in practical orthodontics. In addition, the Begg Prize (€ 2500) will be awarded for the first time to the best scientific research that benefits daily orthodontic practice. The special attractiveness of the congress is its clinical character, a relaxed atmosphere, and sufficient time for presentations and discussions. Just take a look at the program. It’s absolutely fantastic!
