Williams Lectureship sets attendance record
 More than 100 dental
and medical specialists from Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana and Oklahoma gathered to learn the latest information in sleep apnea management during the 6th Annual Dr. Phillip Earle Williams Lectureship in Oral and
Maxillofacial Surgery Jan. 24. This marked the largest number of participants in the history of the event, which was held in Baylor University Medical Center's Beasley Auditorium.
Dr. B.D.Tiner, a nationally recognized oral and maxillofacial surgeon from San Antonio, was the featured speaker. Considered one of the country's leaders in this field, he
presented "Advances in Diagnosis and Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea." He was given the lectureship plaque, which featured a gold bas relief reproduction of the state of Texas on black velvet.
The lectureship is sponsored by Baylor College of Dentistry and hosted by the college's Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery/Pharmacology. This annual continuing
education event for oral and maxillofacial surgeons is held free of charge each year in Williams' memory. The Walter Lorenz Surgical Company and 3i Implant Systems provided corporate support.
Plans for the 7th annual event in 2005 are now being formulated. For more information about the Williams Lectureship or to place a name on the event's mailing list, contact
