The 2026 summit is at Courtyard by Marriott Columbia in Columbia, Missouri.
The listed audience includes dental hygienists, students and new graduates, dental professionals, educators, and industry partners.
It is most useful for Missouri hygienists, students and new graduates who want CE and state association contact, since the day and a half in person brings together hygienists, dentists and educators with speakers such as Kathy S. Forbes and Diann Bomkamp, both FADHA fellows. Clinicians seeking a large national exhibit hall or specialty-level content would get less, since this is a regional meeting at a Columbia hotel.
Dental hygienists at state association meetings usually wear business casual, and some wear scrubs or clean professional separates, with a cardigan for cool meeting rooms.
