By combining scientific rigour with practical application, the Implant Solutions World Summit reinforces Dentsply Sirona’s commitment to supporting clinicians at every stage of implant therapy. Held in Gothenburg, widely recognised as the birthplace of modern implantology, the Implant Solutions World Summit 2026 reflects both the heritage and future of implant dentistry.
43 international speakers, 12 scientific sessions
Throughout the programme, attendees will engage in sessions that translate ambition and scientific progress into practical insights, actionable strategies and measurable clinical impact.
Among the highlights are two forward-looking discussions addressing key challenges in contemporary implant dentistry.
“The Immediacy Challenge – Balancing Technology, Aesthetics and Biology” will explore the clinical considerations behind immediate implant protocols. While immediacy offers clear patient benefits, speakers will examine how these must be carefully balanced against long-term biological and restorative implications to ensure sustainable outcomes and patient quality of life. Chaired by Lyndon Cooper (US), the session features Stijn Vervaeke (BE), Martin Wanendeya (UK) and Christian Mertens (DE), who will share clinical data, case experience and decision-making strategies for predictable immediacy protocols.
In “Connecting the Dots – Driving Efficiency and Enhancing Predictability for Clinical Success”, the focus shifts to digital integration and connected workflows. The session will explore how digital planning, integrated solutions and coordinated treatment pathways can improve efficiency while expanding access to implant therapy. Chaired by Martin Wanendeya (UK), it includes contributions from Serhat Aslan (TR), Mischa Krebs (DE), Varisha Parikh (US), Mark Ludlow (US) and Steve Campbell (UK), demonstrating how digital connectivity transforms both clinical execution and the overall patient journey.
Together, these sessions reflect the overarching theme of aligning scientific evidence, clinical precision and digital innovation to support practice growth while improving operational efficiency.
Seven dedicated masterclasses: Advanced clinical immersion
A defining feature of the Implant Solutions World Summit 2026 is its series of in-depth masterclasses, designed as focused pre-congress sessions combining lectures, live demonstrations and hands-on training.
These masterclasses offer concentrated clinical immersion in key areas of implant therapy, including peri-implant disease management, regenerative bone augmentation, patient-specific prosthetic solutions, full-arch rehabilitation, guided surgery and fully digital treatment workflows. Designed to bridge scientific evidence with hands-on application, the sessions enable clinicians to deepen their expertise, refine surgical and restorative protocols, and enhance predictability across the entire implant treatment pathway — from diagnosis and planning to long-term maintenance.
Comprehensive solutions for modern implant dentistry
The Implant Solutions World Summit will present Dentsply Sirona’s complete implant portfolio within a practical clinical context, including implant systems, prosthetic and regenerative solutions, digital treatment planning tools and DS Core integration. By showcasing the full workflow — from diagnosis through prosthetic restoration to long-term maintenance — the event aims to equip clinicians with insights that can be directly applied in daily practice.
