Select invitations, to be the speaker for the conference, by Indian National Society of Oral Implantologists, were only sent to those International Dental Surgeons, who through their expertise were deemed to be developing efficient and more caring praxis thus providing excellent health care services similar to those identified by the International Community of Oral Implantologists.   As such it appeared to be a pleasant surprise when a German Ahmadi Muslim Dental Surgeon Muzafar Bajwa got an invitation to be the International speaker for the event.  Conference was scheduled from 21st to 23rd of October in the Indian city of Hyderabad and was attended by above 600 delegates from all over India as well 8 other countries of the world. Renowned experts in the field of Dental Surgery from UK and USA were also present on the occasion. Local and International speakers including Dr Bajwa graced the occasion by delivering excellent lectures in the field of dentistry.  However obvious distinctive feature about Dr Bajwa was his participation being the only Muslim dental Surgeon and that too belonging to Ahamdiyya Community. Really it was Blessings of God.  Alhamdolillah.

During the conference many got impressed due to his expertise not only in Dental Surgery but also in the educational field.  Currently he is spreading the dental surgery knowledge through Academy of Medical Science (AMS) to which he is one of the most active directors (www.amedicals.org).  Immediately after the conference he got the invitation to visit 5 Dental Colleges/Universities of Pune and Hyderabad which he did during post conference days and programs have already been chalked out for future mutual cooperation between AMS and respective colleges and universities of India. Ahmadiyya Communities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad also got the opportunity to meet and hear the views of this young upcoming Dental Surgeon. Ahmadiyya Youth present on the occasion were very much flabbergasted due to the achievements of this young Ahamdi and appeared to be motivated to follow his footsteps in the field of higher education.
