Endo Update 2026: What Modern Endodontics Really Has to Decide Today On November 13, 2026, the Dr. B.-DIGITEC Academy will host a professional continuing education event on modern endodontics. The speaker is Prof. Dr. Michael A. Baumann from Cologne. The event will take place from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM at the Leonardo Royal Hotel Cologne on Dürener Straße. Participants will receive 4 continuing education points. The admission fee is 79 euros per person. The focus will be on questions that are highly relevant in everyday practice: Which preparation approach makes sense today? Why does disinfection remain one of the decisive success factors in root canal treatment? In Brief The Endo Update 2026 is aimed at dentists who want to professionally assess and update their endodontic workflows. The continuing education event brings together current concepts of root canal preparation, disinfection, and clinical decision-making in a practice-oriented way. In addition to the professional program, the event also offers space for personal exchange with a welcome coffee, a flying buffet, and a closing get-together. It's the disinfection, stupid! A second focus deliberately makes the point in a pointed way: It's the disinfection, stupid! Because it is not the file system alone that determines the success of an endodontic treatment. What is decisive is whether the root canal system is adequately cleaned and disinfected. Mechanical instruments do not reach all areas of the canal system. Lateral canals, isthmuses, dentinal tubules, and complex anatomical structures remain only limitedly accessible. Disinfection is therefore not a secondary step, but a central component of modern endodontics. The focus will therefore include, among other things: effective irrigation protocols contact time, volume, and activation typical sources of error practical disinfection concepts safe workflows for the practice Prof. Dr. Michael A. Baumann as Speaker This combination is particularly important for an endo update. New systems and techniques must not only be known, but also professionally assessed: What makes sense? What is indication-dependent? What truly improves the workflow? Topics at a Glance The following subject areas will be at the center of the Endo Update 2026: current questions in modern endodontics root canal preparation and disinfection effective irrigation protocols contact time, volume, and activation clinical decision pathways safe workflows in everyday practice assessment of new and established concepts typical sources of error and how to avoid them Event Details at a Glance Event: Endo Update 2026 Speaker: Prof. Dr. Michael A.
