General info on the master in Advanced Endodontics

This postgraduate program is designed for dentists who aim to elevate their clinical practice through advanced education in Endodontics and Restorative Dentistry. Managing complex endodontic treatments and retreatments requires more than theoretical knowledge—it demands refined clinical judgment, technical precision, and a comprehensive understanding of modern treatment protocols. This program is built to provide exactly that balance.

One of the program’s defining features is its integrated “root-to-crown” approach. Contemporary endodontic success cannot be separated from the quality of the final restoration. For this reason, the course emphasizes the complete restorative workflow, enabling clinicians to diagnose, plan, and execute treatments with a predictable and patient-centered perspective.

Over the course of two years, participants will engage in a structured educational pathway that combines evidence-based theoretical learning with intensive practical training. Online lectures provide a strong scientific and clinical foundation, allowing participants to deepen their understanding of both Endodontics and Restorative Dentistry from anywhere in the world.

The hands-on modules, held in Siena, focus on practical skill development through simulations, clinical exercises, and real-life treatment scenarios designed to enhance confidence and precision in everyday practice.

Created specifically for working professionals, the hybrid structure of the program allows participants to continue their clinical activity while pursuing an internationally recognized postgraduate qualification from the University of Siena. Through a flexible and digitally supported learning environment, clinicians can expand their expertise, advance their careers, and remain fully active in their professional practice throughout the duration of the course.
