Expodental Meeting 2025: a triumph of innovation and constructive dialogue for the future of dentistry
Milan, May 20, 2025 – The 2025 edition of Expodental Meeting concluded with great success, reinforcing its undisputed leadership role in the Italian and international dental sector. The event saw a significant turnout of professionals, companies, and stakeholders, showcasing a complete and cutting-edge overview of the latest innovations in technologies, materials, and services.
The exhibition hosted 400 exhibitors, marking a notable increase compared to the previous year. A strong
international presence was confirmed, with significant participation from Germany and China, and a total
of 19 countries represented. A sign of dynamism is the increase in new exhibitors, from 82 to 90, and the
10% increase in net exhibition space. The number of visitors also recorded a 5% increase, with 21,000
attendees over the three days.
On Friday, May 16, the event had the honor of hosting the Undersecretary of State for Health, Hon. Dr.
Marcello Gemmato, who visited the exhibition area with considerable interest, where he was able to view
the innovations and high technological content of Italian dental products. He also participated in the
presentation of the economic analysis of the dental sector, prepared by ANDI. His presence testified to the great attention of the institutions towards the dental sector and the crucial importance of a constant
dialogue between politics and professionals to face the challenges and seize future opportunities.
Also of great resonance was the round table on Saturday morning: “Dentistry and Orthodontics, between
digitalization and multidisciplinarity: a present/future between Clinic, Ethics, Economics and dynamic
interactive Technology. Is the team ready for the challenges of Change?”. A lively moment of discussion on the evolution of the sector.
The round table represented a key event, presented by Fabio Velotti (President of UNIDI) and Pietro di
Michele (representative of SUSO), with an introduction by Antonio Pelliccia and the expert moderation of
journalists Margherita De Bac and Giuliano Giubilei.
