Theme

"On the Shoulders of Giants" is the theme of this year's Annual Meeting, which honors the pioneers of periodontics as well as the cutting-edge advances in the specialty. It is derived from a quote by Sir Isaac Newton: "If I see further, it is because I stand on the shoulders of giants."

Dedication

The 2008 Annual Meeting is dedicated to the memory of Dr. William (Bill) Ammons (1932-2006), in recognition of his dedication to the specialty. Dr. Ammons graduated from Texas Christian University in 1955, served in the United States Air Force during the Korean War and returned to graduate from the University of Texas Dental School in 1959. Dr. Ammons continued his graduate training at the University ofWashington Dental School and graduated in 1970 with his MSD and Certificate in Periodontics. Dr. Ammons taught in the Department of Periodontics at the University of Washington and lectured internationally. He maintained a private practice and taught on a part-time basis until his passing.
