Dear honored guests and participants:

On behalf of the Organizing Committee, it is my great honor and pleasure to welcome you to the 17^th World Implant Orthodontic Conference, to be held from Dec 7 to 9, 2026, in Taipei, Taiwan, in conjunction with the 39^th Annual Meeting of the Taiwanese Association of Orthodontists.

This conference brings together distinguished clinicians, researchers, educators, and industry leaders from around the world to share knowledge, exchange ideas, and explore the latest advancements in implant orthodontics. Taiwan is one of the pioneering countries in this field and is now proud to host this global gathering. We hope that, beyond the scientific sessions, you will enjoy the warmth of Taiwanese hospitality and take time to experience the culture, cuisine, and beauty of Taiwan, with the theme of ‘Orthotopia’

The conference will introduce the latest technology in the orthodontics including the present and future of the digital dentistry, artificial intelligence, and recent advances in the aligner biomechanics along with fundamental biomechanics using orthodontic implants. World Implant Orthodontic Association (WIOA) will also organize the presidential awards for many outstanding graduate students’ research presentations and clinical proposals. The WIOC is absolutely one of the most outstanding scientific congress that attracts most passionate orthodontists and researchers around the world.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation to our speakers, sponsors, partners, and organizing committee members whose dedication and hard work have made this conference possible. Most importantly, I thank each of you for your participation and commitment to advancing our profession.

Thank you.

第39屆中華民國齒顎矯正學會年會暨第17屆世界植體矯正大會將於2026年12月7日至9日於南港展覽館二館盛大舉行，大會主題為「Orthotopia」。

Orthotopia 一詞源自 orthodontics（齒顎矯正）與utopia（烏托邦）。

烏托邦或許永遠遙不可及，但 ortho- 的意義是「讓事物歸正」。在這個充滿混亂與雜音的世界，我們相信，至少在我們所愛的領域裡，可以透過真誠的對話與追尋真理的熱情，一起築起屬於我們的避風港。
它或許不完美，卻真摯，或許不盡圓滿，卻充滿力量。讓我們一同打造充滿實證與真理的矯正烏托邦。

 

2026 TAO WIOC 大會會長 張文忠 敬邀
