Endo Update 2026: What Modern Endodontics Really Needs to Address Today On November 13, 2026, the Dr. B.-Digitec Academy will host a professional continuing education course on modern endodontics. The speaker is Prof. Dr. Michael A. Baumann from Cologne. The event will take place from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at the Leonardo Royal Hotel Cologne on Dürener Straße. Participants will receive 6 continuing education credits. The flat-rate admission fee is 149 euros per person. The focus will be on questions that are highly relevant to everyday practice: Which preparation methods make sense today? Why does disinfection remain one of the key factors for success in root canal treatment? In a nutshell: The Endo Update 2026 is aimed at dentists who wish to gain a professional understanding of and update their endodontic procedures. The continuing education program brings together current concepts in root canal preparation, disinfection, and clinical decision-making in a practical context. In addition to the professional program, the event also offers opportunities for personal exchange with a welcome coffee break, a flying buffet, and a closing get-together. It’s the disinfection, stupid! A second focus deliberately sums up the issue in a pointed way: It’s the disinfection, stupid! After all, the file system alone does not determine the success of endodontic treatment. What matters most is whether the root canal system is sufficiently cleaned and disinfected. Mechanical instruments cannot reach all areas of the canal system. Lateral canals, isthmuses, dentinal tubules, and complex anatomical structures remain only partially accessible. That is why disinfection is not a secondary step, but a central component of modern endodontics. The focus therefore includes, among other things: appropriate irrigation protocols; contact time, volume, and activation; typical sources of error; disinfection concepts suitable for everyday use; and safe procedures for the practice. Prof. Dr. Michael A. Baumann as a speaker. This combination is particularly important for an Endo Update. New systems and techniques must not only be known but also properly contextualized: What makes sense? What depends on the indication? What truly improves the workflow?Topics at a GlanceThe following topics will be the focus of Endo Update 2026: current issues in modern endodontics; root canal preparation and disinfection; effective irrigation protocols; contact time, volume, and activation; clinical decision-making; safe procedures in daily practice; classification of new and proven concepts; typical sources of error and how to avoid them.
