Digital technologies, new treatment concepts and integrated workflows are creating new opportunities in endodontic care. At Dentsply Sirona’s Endo Forum 2026, international specialists explored how these advances could continue, discussing emerging trends and evolving clinical needs that will shape the future of endodontics.
Innovation driven by clinical insight
Innovation in endodontics is shaped by the intersection of science, clinical experience and technological development. For Dentsply Sirona, maintaining close collaboration with clinicians is essential, as they apply new treatment concepts in everyday practice and understand both their benefits and limitations. Endo Forum 2026 provided a platform for continued dialogue between international experts and Dentsply Sirona’s product development, clinical education and marketing teams.
The programme featured interactive sessions examining developments influencing clinical practice from multiple perspectives. Topics included digital workflows, new endodontic capabilities within DS Core, root canal location, next-generation endodontic motors, modern shaping and obturation concepts, and new approaches to coronal restoration. Collaborative discussions enabled participants to share insights into varying clinical needs and treatment approaches across different regions. These exchanges help guide future product development and educational initiatives, ensuring they remain closely aligned with the realities of clinical practice.
From clinical needs to practical solutions
Several new products unveiled during Endo Forum 2026 demonstrated how the latest innovations can be integrated across the endodontic workflow. These included the new Reciproc Minima file for challenging root canal anatomies, the X-Smart Go Cordless Endo Motor, the WaveOne Gold Orifice Shaper, and the new ProRoot Bio Sealer and AH Plus Next Gen Sealer, each addressing different aspects of root canal preparation and obturation. Together, these solutions reflect Dentsply Sirona’s ongoing commitment to advancing endodontic treatment and supporting the long-term preservation of natural teeth.
For decades, Dentsply Sirona has worked closely with the global endodontic community to support tooth preservation. Scientific evidence, high quality standards and continuous collaboration with clinicians have shaped the development of endodontic solutions used in practices worldwide. This long-standing commitment has established Dentsply Sirona as a trusted partner for dental professionals and contributed to the continued advancement of endodontics.
“The requirements in endodontics vary from market to market, but many clinical challenges remain the same,” said Dr Ove Peters, professor of endodontics at the school of dentistry, The University of Queensland, Australia. “Exchanging ideas with colleagues from different countries allows us to compare experiences and evaluate new developments from different perspectives. This often leads to ideas that are relevant far beyond individual markets. That’s what makes events like the Endo Forum so valuable to us as dentists.”
