Spring 2010
It is now a year since I wrote my President’s message in the Spring
2009 Newsletter. I welcome the re-election of Dr. Roch Lee Kwing
Hong, Professor Leung Wai Keung, Dr. John Ling Yu Kong and
Professor Edward Lo Chin Man to the Council for another term of 3
years. The composition of the Council remains unchanged for
another year and this continuity will help us to fully implement the
improvement measures on governance of the College introduced last
year.
I am glad to report that the Joint Winter Scientific Meeting with the
Faculty of Dentistry was a success with over 200 participants. We hope that the fee waiver would
encourage more Fellows to participate and contribute to College activities. I would like to thank Prof.
Leung Wai Keung, Prof. Urban Hägg and all the speakers for their hard work. As far as scientific
meetings are concerned, we are in the process of planning a Spring Scientific Meeting in April as well as
a Joint Congress with the European Association for Osseointegration (EAO) in November.
The Conjoint Examinations with the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh (RCSEd) went smoothly
and we had 15 trainees who sat the Conjoint examinations and a number of non-local candidates who set
the Membership examinations of the RCSEd. The Specialty of Community Dentistry held its 1st
intermediate examination in November with Prof. Cynthia Pine from UK as external examiner. We also
had 8 higher trainees who recently passed their exit examinations in Orthodontics, Oral & Maxillofacial
Surgery and Paediatric Dentistry. I would like to congratulate all candidates who passed your
examinations and I look forward to your support and participation in College activities.

Report on Visitation to the School of Stomatology, Peking University
HKAM has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Minister of Health in Mainland China in
April 2006 to facilitate the development of a specialist registration system in Mainland China.
Stomatology has been chosen as one of the four pilot specialties, the others being ophthalmology,
paediatrics and orthopaedics. The School of Stomatology, Peking University was chosen as the pilot
training centre for our specialty.
The first visitation to the School of Stomatology, Peking University was conducted in October 2007 and
the lists of “grand-father specialists” for Oral Maxillofacial Surgery and Orthodontics were confirmed.
Subsequently, a second visitation was conducted on 17 April 2009 to review the progress of training. The
two representatives of our College were Dr John Ling and Dr KH Lee. It was noted that three other
sub-specialties were established, namely Endodontics, Periodontics and Prosthodontics.
The training programs for the five sub-specialties were reviewed as well as the physical facilities in the
hospital. Useful exchanges were conducted and the problems facing the specialist training in the three
new sub-specialties were presented by the School of Stomatology.
The Vice-Minister of Health, Professor Huang Jie-fu and his team visited Hong Kong and met with
representatives of the four Colleges involved on 24 June 2009. At the meeting, reports of the four
Colleges were considered and discussion was held to suggest the way forward. HKAM would prepare a
further summary report and shall meet with the Minister of Health later this year to discuss future plans.
Prepared by Dr KH Lee
