Risio Reporter

We are attending our first Ontario ASM as exhibitors this month and we are SO excited to ‘talk Risio’ with our friends, colleagues and newcomers! This is our first year at the Ontario ASM and we are thrilled to spread the news about Risio’s new Ontario location!

Our mission is to provide better access to education across Canada, so our Ontario campus is near and dear to our hearts. Our students from the eastern side of Canada now have a campus to enrol in with a clinical location closer to home!

You can find us at booth #1247 and we are ready to see everyone! We have a few fun things in store and you may even win a pair of our famous RISIO SOCKS! Check out our Risio ad on page 105 of the ASM Show Guide! https://online.flippingbook.com/view/83740266/

We would love to see our students, graduates and sponsoring dental teams, so please stop by and say hello! We are also excited to meet new dental teams and collaborate with industry representatives.
