Michael Stablein, Chicago Dental Society President

I met Michael at the 2009 Chicago Dental Society Midwinter Meeting, introduced by a common friend, Gerhard Seeberger.

After that, for several occasions we had the opportunity to have a series of conversations.

I was literally astonished when, surfing on the ADA webpage, noticed the announcement of his sudden death in Mexico City.

This is always inexplicable, brutal, particular, as it was the case when so premature.

I’ll always keep in my mind an image of Michael of sympathy, kindness, integrity.

To all the family, particularly to his wife Caroline (Coco), friends, colleagues and to the Chicago Dental Society, my deepest condolences.


2010 Chicago Dental Society Midwinter Meeting

March 26, 2010

For the second time I was present at the Chicago Midwinter Meeting. It was impossible not to go back. The excellent organisation and the importance of the meetings and contacts established, make this meeting a great success. The CDS Midwinter Meeting is one of the largest exhibits of dental products in North America, providing the international dental community with the updated information we need to better serve our patients.

I had the pleasure of attending the reception of the Chicago Dental Society (CDS) and observed its excellent congress. I had the opportunity of exchanging some ideas regarding the future of dentistry with CDS’s President, Dr David Kumamoto and with the President-Elect, Dr Michael Stablein.
