Information on the master
This postgraduate program is specifically designed for any dentist desiring to update their daily clinical practice and achieve up-to-date knowledge in Endodontology and beyond. Blending expertise with remarkable clinical skills is the key to success in managing complex endodontic cases whether it is a primary root canal treatment or a root canal retreatment to deal with.
Moreover, the most frequent situation in dentistry requires not only a successful endodontic approach but also an effective restoration. Therefore our root-to-crown philosophy will enable the clinician to holistically understand a case and perform a top-level treatment answering to the most demanding patient expectations. This 2-year program of study provides evidence-based dentistry offering a valuable scientific basis in Endodontology and Restorative Dentistry for any clinician to understand and draw a correct treatment plan. The face-to-face session enables our participants to upgrade their skills through intense workshops particularly created to be easily transferred to their private practice.
The digital era enables our University to create a friendly environment for those who cannot interrupt their office activity and their constant income for full-time postgraduate training. This is an opportunity to work, learn, evolve, earn and become professional at the same time. Graduation of this postgraduate program arrives with a prestigious title offered by Università di Siena.
The onsite hands-on is designed to level up your clinical skills by passing through many clinical procedures and reproducing real office situations that you should manage correctly by the time you graduate. Your hands-on supervision and guidance will be full-time provided by our experts in the field of Endodontology and Restorative Dentistry. They will dedicate their physical presence during the onsite module in Siena to help you improve and achieve the skills and clinical expertise you have dreamed of.

How much does it cost?
This master cost 7.000€ excl. taxes (virtual stamp duty 16€, VAT where applicable – depending also on your tax position and country). The maximum cost including taxes is 7896€.
- At the application stage, you will have to pay a small deposit of 150€ plus VAT to enable us to handle your application and to reserve a place on the master course. This amount will be deducted from your final account, but if you are not admitted to the master’s course it will not be refundable.
- When your application is accepted you have to transfer your first payment (tuition fees, first instalment + VAT, virtual stamp duty).

If for some reason you don’t have to pay VAT, of course, the figures will be slightly different.
Educational System in Italy
How our agreement with the university works.
Dentalnecto has an agreement to co-organize the master’s program. We take care of looking for candidates through promotion agreements with external entities (e.g., Zerodonto). Then we collect the applications and handle the submissions and all communications with students related to the admission stages. We also collect the fees, and when we have all of them, we pay the university the tuition portion (usually in two instalments, the due dates of which are determined by the university). The rest you pay is to cover our support throughout 2 and more years (from application to the certificate), our services mentioned above and all the management of theory classes that take place online through our remote support and through software managed by us. This also includes video recordings of the meetings.
The figures disclosed on this site include everything, fees, services, and total figures (including two years of courses).
