ENDO UPDATE WORKSHOPS
ENDO WORKSHOPS
4 DIFFERENT ENDO WORKSHOPS: ENDO UPDATE, RE-ENDO, POST-ENDO, LASER ENDO
3 DIFFERENT LEVELS OF ADVANCEMENT
Dental students and postgraduate dental trainees are invited to BASIC course and ADVANCED one (playing an observer or supervised practitioner role during the professional treatment).
Once you obtain the unconditional right to practise as a dentist we invite you to follow all the levels of ENDO Update (the number of your dental license will be required during registration process).
INDIVIDUALLY (ONE-TO-ONE) OR IN A SMALL GROUP
Each of ENDO Update workshops may be followed by a small group (max. 4 participants) or individually (one-to-one).
While followed individually, the focus of the teacher will be on the individual learning needs of the participant. The aim of the one-to-one workshop is to maximally improve their individual skills as during the workshop the participant performs all the procedures himself, only being supervised and guided by the teacher.
ADVANCED or MASTER LEVEL TAILOR-MADE WORKSHOP
Choosing individual ADVANCED or MASTER LEVEL workshop the participant is invited to define their own education plan as well as their learning needs.
- Tell us what is your main focus now? What are your endo challenges that you resist to face?
- Difficult anatomy – how to disinfect and negotiate a curved canal?
- No more underfilling?
- How to eliminate the air bubbles in your obturation?
- What if complications arise?
- Let us prepare a tailor-made one-to-one workshop that will meet all your expectations!

ENDO WORKSHOPS TOPICS
ENDO UPDATE WORKSHOP
BASIC
BASIC level workshop presenting the gold standards of the root canal treatment.
Theory part (1.5h) includes:
- The written consent gold standards
- Anaesthesia choice (how to eliminate the pain during RCT subsequent stages)
- Assessment of the X-ray and diagnosis
- Pre-endo tooth restoration
- Successful tooth isolation
- Access cavity
- Detection of all the canals
- Negotiation of the canals (rotary files) and homogenous obturation (with various types of sealers)
The practical part (2,5h) consists of independent practising all of the above mentioned procedures with the unique possibility of X-ray control of the results.
ADVANCED
Advanced course dedicated to advanced dental practitioners. Key endodontic procedures. After the theory part (2h) you will know:
- Trics helpful in the initial canal negotiation (obliterated canals included)
- Effective methods of bypassing the ledge
- Recommendations in endodontic file breakage
- 3 different techniques of activation of the irrigation solution
- Rules of continuous wave obturation technique
The practical part (4h) is based on observation of the endodontics specialist live while subsequent procedures are being performed. Each participant has a possibility of following the treatment stages thanks to the screen integrated with the microscope vision. The leading specialists explain all the details, the order and aim of each step. Afterwards, there is always a discussion of all the aspects of the revised root canal treatment. Taking part in this workshop guarantees your endodontic workflow optimization.
The second part of this hands-on workshop is based on patients’ care. All the participants perform chosen clinical procedures (with patient’s consent) taking advantage of being supervised and accompanied by an experienced academic teacher. All the necessary materials and instruments are provided.
Those who do not use microscope in their daily practice are not excluded from taking part in that workshop, but image sharpness adjustment at various magnifications will be indispensable (rules of image sharpness adjustement are included in ENDO Update BASIC programme).
MASTER LEVEL
The workshop dedicated to passionate endodontics enthusiasts.
- If you have taken part in several pre-clinical workshops in large group, treating extracted or plastic teeth
- If you make an effort of using microscope in your everyday practice, but sometimes it seems complicated to follow this inverted image
- If you continue referring the patients to a well-known specialist and would like to change that
- If your goal is to practise endo procedures under a professional supervision, and then – to plan and perform each step on your own
This MASTER LEVEL ENDO Update is an answer.
Choose a tailor-made option to concentrate only on your personal education needs.
After our intensive 2,5h – theory course you will know:
- How to close different types of perforations
- How to treat resorptions?
- Whether and how the dental stones may change your procedures? – practical specialists’ tips
- How to manage trauma cases?
6,5h practical workshop (2-day course) will include independant professional care given to the real patient. Each participant will perform two specialist treatments with bioceramic materials, with the opportunity of asking for help or advice. Your individual supervisor will be there to guide you if any doubt arises.
RE-ENDO WORKSHOP
BASIC
BASIC 1,5h theory and 2,5h hands-on course
Theory part includes:
