This course is a combined theoretical and hands-on workshop in endodontics focused on the clinical use of modern biosilicate materials — MTA and Well-Root PT. It covers diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for managing perforations and teeth with an open apex, how to choose the right material for each clinical scenario, and key techniques for working under the microscope. This training is timely because the use of biosilicate/bioceramic materials is rapidly increasing and mastering their clinical application is essential for predictable, long‑term outcomes.

Who should attend: general dentists, endodontists, endodontic residents and clinicians who perform endodontic procedures and want to improve their management of complex cases. The course is best suited to practitioners with basic endodontic experience seeking intermediate to advanced practical skills.

What participants can expect and why it’s valuable: you will study real clinical cases illustrated with high‑quality photos and video, then apply techniques in a hands‑on setting using 3D‑printed teeth that simulate common clinical challenges. Key benefits include improved decision-making, practical skills with biosilicate cements, and tips to avoid common errors.

• Hands-on practice on 3D‑printed teeth representing: a central incisor with a wide apical opening; a molar with a furcation perforation and furcal lesion; and a molar with a lateral root perforation.
• Practical competencies: material selection and treatment planning; preparation of the operative field for obturation with biosilicate cements; application and adaptation of MTA and Well-Root PT; matrix technique using a resorbable barrier; assessment of fill quality; and targeted advice to prevent common mistakes.

The course is led by experienced endodontic clinicians and uses real case documentation (photos and videos) to demonstrate reproducible strategies for predictable results.

Minimal invasive adhesive dentistry became increasingly important during the last decade aiming for a greater preservation of healthy tooth tissue and proper restoration of both anatomical and functional relations of the offending tooth. This course will cover all modern principles of practicing additive adhesive dentistry. First, the instructor will elaborate in detail the importance of proper case assessment, how to restore mutilated and endo treated teeth with direct esthetic restorations and when to take the decision to shift to the indirect restoratives. It will also highlight the importance of integrating the additive approach to solve many restorative complexities including deep margins and extensive tooth structure loss and how to overcome these obstacles utilizing adhesive dentistry.

This course will tackle all hot topics in modern dentistry including deep margin elevation, immediate dentin sealing, cavity design optimization and how to apply guided subtractive dentistry in tooth preparation.

The course will cover all typologies of cavity preparation including inlays, onlays, overlays, vonlays and endocrowns, and elaborate when to shift to full coverage restorations. It will also discuss the added value of implementing digital dentistry in indirect restoratives and different material options used for indirect esthetic restorations. The course will provide systematic protocols for different surface treatments used for indirect esthetic restorations according to the selected material. It will also cover how to achieve perfect field isolation utilizing rubber dam and how to select the correct cementation protocol based on the typology of tooth preparation for more predictable and durable outcomes, and how to glimmer the final outcome using simplified finishing and polishing protocol.

All presented material will be supported with high quality scientific evidence, photos and videos of HD quality and numerous clinical cases with different scenarios documented step by step to elaborate all presented scientific material.

In the hands-on part, the instructor will start, first with detailed demonstration showing step by step how to reach the desired outcome using simplified, predictable and repeatable protocols followed by the practical part done by the participants.
