Microsurgical Endodontics: From Planning to Execution

Microsurgical Endodontics: From Planning to Execution is organized by University of the Pacific, Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry and will be held from Mar 07 - 09, 2026 at University of the Pacific, Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry, San Francisco, California, United States of America.

Description:
This intense, three-day workshop is designed to provide participants with the ability to learn all about endodontic microsurgery, starting from decision making and treatment planning to patient management of the root as well as soft and hard tissue structures for a predictable treatment outcome. The course features a live surgery demonstration, allowing participants to observe procedures firsthand. Attendees will perform surgery on a simulated 3D surgical model using a surgical operating microscope and proper microsurgery armamentarium. Participants will incise and reflect simulated gingiva, perform osteotomy, apicoectomy, retro-preparation and retro-filling followed by suturing.

You Will Learn:

• To perform adequate treatment planning in endodontic microsurgery
• To utilize the different endodontic microsurgical armamentarium
• How to save time in each step of the endodontic surgical procedure
• To recognize the best evidence available regarding endodontic microsurgery
• To understand the concept of complete surgical retreatment
• To describe the benefits of using guided tissue regeneration techniques in endodontic surgery
• To recognize the scenarios where guided tissue regeneration is essential for better bone remodeling
• To identify when graft material and resorbable membranes can be used separately or in combination.
