Excellent meeting
LAB DAY West was a great meeting.
The location is excellent, even if parking was a little rough this year because of construction. Understandable, and honestly, worth the trouble.
This is one of the better lab meetings in America, especially if you are involved in full-arch dentistry. It also happens right around the same time as the California Dental Association meeting at the Anaheim Convention Center, less than a mile away. That means you have thousands of doctors, lab people, clinicians, vendors, and decision-makers all circling the same few square miles.
My suggestion: make a couple of days out of it.
Bring your significant other. Let them hit Disneyland, California Adventure, or even sneak off to the beach while you’re in meetings pretending not to enjoy yourself. The weather this time of year is excellent, the energy is good, and the education is absolutely worth your time.
For anyone in the lab world, especially full arch, LAB DAY West is not a half-bad place to be.
Treat yourself. Go for the education. Stay for the connections. Make a day, or even a week, out of it.
