This historic milestone reflects our remarkable journey—from humble beginnings to significant advancements in dental care, education, and professional excellence. Over the past five decades, the field of dentistry in the Maldives has evolved tremendously, thanks to the dedication of our pioneers, professionals, and the unwavering support of the healthcare community.
As part of this grand celebration, we are proud to present the Hinithun Dental Conference 2025, the first international dental conference in the Maldives, a scientific gathering designed to foster knowledge exchange, professional growth, and collaborative innovation in dentistry. The conference will feature engaging keynote presentations, scientific discussions, hands-on workshops, and interactive sessions, providing a platform to explore cutting-edge advancements and best practices in the field.
As we commemorate this golden anniversary, we also invite you to experience the beauty and warmth of the Maldives. Beyond the scientific discourse, we encourage you to explore our own little paradise and embrace the rich culture, stunning beaches, crystal clear water and vibrant marine life, with the spirit of hospitality that defines our island nation.
