Dear Ryan and Daniela, Following what we discussed yesterday, i confirm i will be attending iac but only on Monday 14th of October… My Topical Team Member and AWG member Dr.Ishita Singhal will be presenting our scopic review on space dentistry at 12.40h. I will be there to support her. As requested we have prepared a short text in case you want to share it. Hope to see you there! Hello everyone. My name is Dirk Neefs, and I am the moderator of the Topical Team ESA on dental Guidelinesforastronautsonlong-termmissions. I am excited to announce that my team will be presenting at the upcoming International Astronautical Congress 2024 in Milan, Italy. Our presentation, titled **“Dental Guidelines for Astronauts on Short- and Long-Term Missions: A Scoping Review,”** will explore the vital role of dental care in space. This review covers an analysis of papers sourced from archives and research databases to investigate how dental treatments have been managed in space missions up to now. We will also be outlining the guidelines that can be developed based on these past experiences to ensure the well-being of astronauts on both short- and long-duration missions. Our multidisciplinary team consists of experts in dentistry and space medicine: - _Gianluca Tartaglia_ - _Massimo del Fabbro_ - _Shahnawaz Khijmatgar_ - _Ishita Singhal_ - _Bart Vandberghe_ - _Edward Kijak_ - _Malgorzata Kulesa-Mrowiecka_ - _Basil Britto Xavier_ - _Victoria Sampson_ We look forward to sharing our insights with the scientific community and contributing to the future of space health! Best Regards, Dirk @daniela.bezdan @jaume.puig ---
