The event brought together 5 national and 30 international speakers, who shared their expertise and knowledge with attendees, including students and dentists from different cities across Ecuador, contributing to the training and professional development of those in the field.</p> <p>During the congress, multiple activities were held in five simultaneous rooms, featuring a wide range of lectures, hands-on workshops, and interactive panel discussions. These activities provided an opportunity for participants to engage directly with leading experts, ask questions, and discuss the latest advancements in dental science. Additionally, practical courses were offered in the School of Dentistry building, where attendees were able to refine their clinical skills and techniques in a unique academic environment. This combination of theoretical and practical learning created a well-rounded educational experience for all participants.</p> <p>Furthermore, the event featured the participation of prominent dental associations, such as the Orthodontic and Orthopedic Society of Guayas, the Endodontic Society of Guayas, the Ecuadorian Orthodontic Society, and the Ecuadorian section of the IADR, along with commercial entities from the dental sector. These companies showcased the latest technologies and products for clinical development, offering participants an insight into cutting-edge tools and innovations that are shaping the future of dentistry.</p> <p>One of the most anticipated moments of the event was the awarding of the scientific poster competition, in the categories of Clinical Case and Original Research. The winners of the Original Research category qualified for a second stage, where they will compete for the prestigious Hatton Award at the IADR to be held in Barcelona. This opportunity provides an unparalleled platform for these researchers to present their work on an international stage, allowing them to continue excelling in the field of dental research and contributing to the advancement of knowledge in the profession.</p> <p>The CIEO 2024 Congress reaffirms UEES's commitment to academic excellence, innovation in dentistry, and the promotion of collaboration between institutions and professionals on a global scale.</p> Pablo Benítez Sellan Copyright (c) 2025 Brazilian Dental Science 2025-01-16 2025-01-16 28 1 Suppl 1 10.4322/bds.2025.e4655
