On behalf of the Scandinavian Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (SFOMK) we have a great pleasure of inviting you to our 33rd meeting in Tampere, Finland.

The theme for this meeting is “Future is Now”, by which we wish to bring you new, exciting views to the contemporary developments in the field of endoscopy, tissue engineering and oral pathology. Naturally, an active social programme is an essential part of the SFOMK congress.

The capital of Finland's Western Lake District, Tampere is located in the midst of a lake labyrinth - 200 lakes situated within the city limits.

The city with a rich industrial heritage is a popular congress venue and an ideal destination for the young and the young at heart, for families with children and for culture enthusiasts.

A big city by Finnish standards, with almost 210 000 inhabitants, Tampere still manages to feel like a small town. In the centre, everything is within walking distance.

Some 170 km north of Helsinki, Tampere has direct flight connections with Stockholm, Copenhagen, Riga, London, Dublin, Frankfurt, Bremen, and, from December 2007 onwards, Milan.

We are looking forward to meeting our Scandinavian colleagues in attractive Tampere in June 2008 at hotel Scandic Rosendahl (see links).

Welcome!

On behalf of the organizing committee:
