Congres

Vital Pulp Therapy (VPT) is rapidly gaining prominence as a biologically driven and minimally invasive alternative to traditional root canal treatments. This congress, hosted by the Department of Dentistry at the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG), brings together clinicians, researchers, and educators to explore the full scope of VPT and its integration into contemporary endodontic practice.

Through lectures, clinical case discussions, and evidence-based insights, the program will examine how diagnostic accuracy, material science, and technological innovation—such as Guided Endodontics and CAD/CAM workflows—are reshaping the way we approach pulpal preservation. Rather than focusing solely on treatment techniques, the event invites participants to reflect more broadly on how we define success in endodontics today.

Set in an academic environment that encourages both learning and critical dialogue, this congress offers dental professionals the opportunity to engage with forward-thinking concepts, connect with peers, and help shape the future of conservative, biologically respectful endodontic care.
