Dental Conferences in California
66 Events for 2026 & 2027

CDA Presents, organized by the California Dental Association, is the largest dental conference in California. It runs twice a year, alternating between Anaheim and a Northern California host city, and draws thousands of dentists, hygienists, and dental team members along with a major technology exhibit hall.

California dentists must complete 50 units of continuing education every two-year license renewal cycle, including mandatory courses such as infection control and the California Dental Practice Act. Large meetings like CDA Presents can provide a substantial share of those units in a single event.
