Good morning Undergraduate Dental Students,

The Manitoba Dental Association has once again graciously extended an invitation to all undergraduate dental students to attend, free of charge, the 2026 MDA Annual Convention & Trade Show (Prairie Lights Dental Convention) to be held at the RBC Convention Centre. The Convention offers valuable opportunities for professional learning, development, and collegial interactions.

D4 students, with the exception of those on external rotations, are exempt from College clinics and lectures on Friday, April 17, 2026 so that they may attend the Convention. D4 student Conference attendance that day is therefore expected. Please refer to your academic schedule.

All undergraduate dental students are invited to attend the Convention on Saturday, April 18, 2006, which includes the mandatory MDA Mentorship Convention Lunch and Presentations to be held from 11:30 am to 2:00 pm.

Please review the attached Conference details, including dates and registration information. Please register prior to the Early Bird deadline of February 28, 2026.

Looking forward to seeing everyone at the Convention.

JP
