10 Day Endodontic Programme (Formby)

Simplyendo's Formby programme combines lectures and daily practical work in roughly equal proportions. Teaching progresses through diagnosis, access, canal preparation, irrigation and obturation to retreatment, trauma and procedural complications.

The next advertised programme starts on 10 February 2027. Its five two-day blocks are 10-11 February, 10-11 March, 7-8 April, 12-13 May and 9-10 June. Previously advertised November 2026 and January 2027 runs remain in the schedule; confirm their status directly rather than assuming they were cancelled. The advertised fee is GBP 6,250 and the programme offers 60 verifiable e-CPD hours. Confirm availability, VAT basis and the complete timetable.

The ten teaching modules

1. Disease causes, prognosis and instrumentation: balanced-force hand filing, ProTaper Gold and prevention of preparation errors.
2. Canal anatomy, infection and research appraisal, with preparation size, taper and preservation of tooth structure.
3. Diagnosis, non-dental pain, medical considerations, imaging and access. Practical comparisons include glide paths, One Curve and Reciproc Blue in curved canals.
4. Vital pulp treatment, working length, apical gauging, irrigants and activation. Instrument exercises include K3XF, ProTaper Next and Reciproc Blue.
5. Nickel-titanium behaviour, fracture prevention and difficult anatomy, comparing WaveOne Gold with Zenflex.
6. Anaesthesia, pain control and antibiotic principles, followed by root-filling methods, sealers and interappointment medication.
7. Retreatment assessment and dismantling, including removal of gutta-percha with heat, solvents and different file systems.
8. Restorative planning, temporary seals and cuspal protection. Practical work introduces HyFlex EDM and core-building approaches.
9. Trauma, resorption and discolouration, with immature roots, regenerative concepts and bioceramic barrier or perforation repair.
10. Consent, communication and procedural complications, including ultrasonic removal of posts or separated instruments and endodontic-periodontal relationships.

Participants read research papers between sessions and discuss their clinical application. The ten-day programme is a separate stage of training; it does not itself confer an MSc.
