This page covers the full list, ranked by reach and relevance, so you can plan around the events that actually fit your market. The Chicago Midwinter Meeting anchors the month as one of the largest dental gatherings in the country, drawing thousands of practitioners to Illinois in late February. On the other end of the spectrum, regional events like the MSDA Dentist Day in Annapolis give vendors and service providers direct access to state-level decision makers in a smaller setting. If you sell into dental practices, February gives you multiple windows to build pipeline before Q2 budget cycles close. The Yankee Dental Conference 2026 draws significant attention this time of year, making it a useful benchmark when evaluating which February events deserve your time and budget.
