New Orleans Dental Conference 2027

Online registration is the easiest, fastest, and most secure way to register for NODC, handled through the conference's registration portal. The conference invites dentists, hygienists, technicians, and any additional staff members to attend, and you can complete the form even if the dentist from your practice is not attending.

Key points from the most recent published cycle:

• On-site registration is available, but spots are limited, so early arrival is advised.
• Guest/spouse passes were offered at a discounted early rate (a registered dentist's spouse/guest fee rose closer to the event); registered family members under 18 attend free but must be registered.
• Registration changes can be made anytime by signing back into your online account.
• Cancellations must be submitted in writing by email; full cancellations before the stated deadline received a refund minus a 20% administration fee, with all refunds processed after the conference concludes.

The New Orleans Dental Conference has deep roots in Louisiana dentistry, with a documented line of conference chairpersons beginning in 1948. Over the decades it has grown into the combined New Orleans Dental Conference & LDA Annual Session, the state's signature dental meeting.

The conference is organized under the auspices of the New Orleans Dental Association and the Louisiana Dental Association (LDA), and is affiliated with the American Dental Association. Its stated mission is to provide continuing dental education to members and to dental practitioners and ancillary personnel on a regional, national, and international level. In years when New Orleans hosted the ADA Annual Session, the local conference gave way to that national meeting, reflecting the city's long-standing role as a dental education destination.
