The European Society of Endodontology Conference will be held next week in the beautiful city of Edinburgh. Unfortunately, I'm not going to take part but I'm looking forward to meeting my fellow colleagues from the University of Belgrade School of Dentistry, Professors Vladimir Ivanovic and Branislav Karadzic and Dr Jugoslav Ilic, who will be presenting their research findings.
Prof. Ivanovic is one of keynote speakers and will give a presentation entitled: "Seeking where, when, why and how to locate apical terminus of the root canal preparation". He will also chair a session on the risks and controversies of local anaesthetics.
Scientific programme comprises more than 30 lectures on various topics of interest in contemporary endodontic practice and science. Dental materials will be discussed during several lectures and this year include the following issues:
- Obturation: concepts, truths and misconceptions, by Prof. G. Glickman, USA
- Changing endodontic concepts and outcomes: the multifaceted use of mineral trioxide aggregate, by Dr G. Bogen, USA
- So much for the endodontics, what about the restoration?, by Prof. R. Ibbetson, UK
- New perspectives in adhesive post endodontic restoration, by Prof. A. Cerutti, Italy
- Fibre posts and dentine adhesion: the true story, by Dr F. Mannocci, Italy
Furthemore, dental materials will be addressed in presentations on freely chosen topics including bioceramics of calcium phosphate in endodontic treatment, rheological studies, apical sealing, bond strength, biocompatibility and cytotoxicity of new and current endodontics sealers, fitting and microleakage around fibre posts.
