Congratulations to the 2024 winners!

Members of the Australian Dental Industry Association (ADIA) and the wider oral health community gathered last night at the International Convention Centre in Sydney to celebrate the dental industry’s finest.

The Australian Dental Industry Awards were presented at a gala dinner event, in conjunction with ADX Sydney. Chaser and War on Waste presenter, Craig Reucassel provided entertainment with his humorous tongue-in-cheek take on everything from politics to the SIDCON & ADX Sydney program.

The ADIA President and Board acknowledged ADIA member and Centaur Software Co-Founder, Dr Frank Papadopoulos, for his contribution to the industry, receiving the Industry Pioneer Award. Dr Mark Wotherspoon, who has advocated tirelessly for improved dental care in the aged care sector, was also acknowledged with the Industry Award.

In accepting the Industry Award, Dr Wotherspoon said "It is an absolute honour to win this award, which is amazing in that it helps to shine a light on the need for general dentists, public and private, to lift their game."

Clinton Lewis, the winner of the Service and Support Award, paid tribute to his team and their "daily commitment to empower dental professionals to provide exceptional service, with relentless innovation.'' He said that the Award would "fuel [their] determination."

ADIA CEO, Kym De Britt, stressed the importance of honouring standout achievements in the sector. He remarked, "These awards are a way for the Association to applaud industry excellence and commend the members and groups at the forefront of improving the oral health outcomes for Australians."
