FAQ Fiesta NMDA 2024

Yes. You will register for Fiesta NMDA in the same way you registered last year. If you’ve attended a previous NMDA event, your information will be stored in the system.

If you are not a dentist and you have attended an NMDA event in the last few years, use the username and password you used previously. Typically, your user is your email, but you can click "Forgot Username" if you need to. If you don’t remember a password, use the "Forgot Password" link. If this is the first time you have registered for any NMDA event, click on “Nonmember? Create Account” to set up a new account.

Please update your information (workplace, phone, etc) before continuing to register. Do not create a new profile unless you are a first-time registrant for an NMDA event. Please email Susan Pate (spate@nmdental.org) to request a name or email address change.

You can register your entire office using the “Add Registrant” button during the registration process. If your dentist is registering, be sure to use their ADA number to access their profile. (Your dentist does not have to be the primary registrant.) Since registrants will have access to the online event as well as the live event, each registrant must provide their own email address.

Please use your ADA number to access your profile. If you don't remember your password, click on "Forgot Password" to reset it.

We will be at the Crowne Plaza Albuquerque. Be sure to click HERE to make your room reservations (the event rate will show when you put in the dates). Or you can call 877-227-6963 and reference "NMDA 2024" for the event rate.

We have partnered with Patterson Dental to create a demonstration space for vendors. You'll be able to set up a time to see a live demonstration of that equipment you're considering for your practice. Be sure to check it out!

After you register, you will be emailed your credentials for accessing the event hub starting on June 6. The email will come from Accelevents (please watch your spam folder). You'll be able to use your credentials for this event for the live portion as well as access to the on-demand videos for up to 30 days after the event.

No. You only need to have access to the Internet. We do recommend that you click on “Device Checker” (found on the left side of the event hub) to make sure your connection is optimal and that your VPN/firewall won’t interfere with your viewing. eClasses can be watched, booths can be visited, and contacts made from the app or web page.

Your login details will be emailed to you prior to the event. You can use the link in that email to access both the livestreamed event and to watch on-demand recordings after the event. Your credentials or “Magic Link” will expire periodically, but the email letting you know it is expired will include an option to request a new one. This only takes a moment.

In order to give credit to all attendees, each attendee will have to log-in on their own device with their own profile. You may watch together, but only attendees who have logged in with their own profile will receive CE credit.

The event will remain open 24/7 for 30 days. You can attend whenever it’s convenient for you during that time. 

Yes. Course handouts and exhibitor materials can be downloaded and saved or printed using your local device. Those that attend the meeting in-person will be encouraged to use the mobile app to access handouts.

Be sure to download the Accelevents app even if you’re attending in person! You can use it to connect with friends and colleagues, interact with exhibitors, download documents, and even compete in contests. You can also personalize your profile and make it so people can find you.

Yes! Exhibitors will be present in the in-person exhibit area, and they will have booths online where they can chat, video conference, and more. We hope you will make a point to visit their booths and thank them for supporting Fiesta NMDA!
