The Ultimate Dental Experience

For more than two decades now, the leading players in dentistry have been meeting at Dental World in Budapest to gain knowledge, experience and expertise. Congress participants and international experts from 50+ countries from all over the world, with a special focus on the Central-Eastern European countries, will be able to attend 5 international congresses at Dental World.

The presence of more than 300 dental manufacturers will guarantee first-hand experience of all the innovations that will be seen in dental practices in the years to come. In addition, live surgeries, demos, workshops and practical training sessions will provide visitors with knowledge that can be applied immediately, while the social event will help participants to get to know not only Budapest but also each other better.

Keystone Speaker for 2025 Digital Dentistry Congress is Dr. Adrian Lussi.

DETAILED PROGRAM

DAY 1

9.05-9.15

Dr. Zsolt Nagy
Digital Dentistry Congress – Opening

09.15-10.15

Dr. Jameel Gardee
Digital Fully Guided Workflows in Aesthetic Dentistry

Modern day dentistry allows us to leverage the full power of digital technology to improve our predictability, efficiency and accuracy in smile rehabilitation cases. In this presentation we will discuss preparation techniques for true minimal invasive dentistry and touch on new workflows in relation to CAD CAM and 3d printed restorations.

10.15-10.45
Coffee Break

10.45-11.45

Dr. Omar Hamid
Dynamics of Digital Dentistry in Implantology

Digital dentistry has transformed implantology by enabling precise, prosthetically driven planning and execution. Through technologies like CBCT, intraoral scanning, and CAD/CAM, clinicians can virtually design and place implants with high accuracy. Guided surgery enhances treatment predictability, reduces risks, and improves aesthetic and functional outcomes. This overview highlights how digital workflows are reshaping implant protocols, offering efficient, patient-centered solutions.

11.45-12.45

Dr. Petra Zaverski
Practical Approach to Adoption of Digital Treatment and Visualization Tools in Daily Clinical Workflows

This lecture explores the integration of innovative digital tools like the Smile Architect and Smile Video, alongside Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) into the modern dental workflow. Emphasis is placed on how these technologies enhance diagnostic accuracy, treatment planning, and patient communication. The new technologies enable us with precise aesthetic visualization and improved case acceptance, while CBCT provides comprehensive 3D imaging for accurate anatomical assessment. We will explore how clinical implementation of these digital tools streamlines clinical efficiency and elevates the quality of patient-centered care in everyday dental practice.

12.45-14.15
Lunch Break

14.15-15.15

Dr. Alejandro Pineda
In-House Digital Dentistry | Our 10 Years of Experience

In the past 10 years, we’ve built a fully in-house digital workflow that has changed the way we work every day. From intraoral scanning to 3D printing and chairside milling, we’ve learned how to make the most of these tools to improve quality and save time. In this lecture, I’ll share what worked, what didn’t, and how we overcame the main challenges. My goal is to show how digital dentistry can become a natural part of your daily routine—practical, efficient, and accessible.

15.00-16.00

Prof. Ioannis K. Karoussis
Application of Guided Biofilm Therapy in the treatment of peri-implant pathology – The modified CIST protocol

According to the available data, millions of implants are placed annually. The number of implants already placed globally is enormous. Lots of patients have accepted implant therapies andthis population is growing dramatically. Despite the high survival rates of several implant protocols, failures do exist, and biological complications are the pivotal reason for implant loss. All epidemiological studies have shown that irrespectively of the criteria used to define peri-implantitis, the prevalence of this destructive disease is high.

28%-56% of the implant patients suffer from peri-implantitis and 12%-43% of the implants exhibit bone loss related to peri-implant pathology. Similarly to what is observed in periodontal diseases, peri-implantitis is the evolvement of a reversible inflammatory condition, restricted only in the soft peri-implant tissues. This disease is called peri-implant mucositis. Interestingly, in peri- implant mucositis cases, where the disease was not properly treated because the patients did not enroll in an individualized maintenance program, the situation aggravated, and the incidence of peri-implantitis reached 44%.

It is therefore obvious that since peri-implant mucositis as well as peri-implantitis are inflammatory diseases of primarily microbial etiology, treatment and prevention must be based on an effort to decrease periodontal pathogens during therapy of peri-implant pathology and on a regular basis, during maintenance therapy.

In the light of recent data presenting the side-effects of mechanical debridement of implant surfaces, because of the titanium particles and the corrosion that occurs, the need for a safe and harmless approach for implant surface decontamination becomes crucial.

The Cumulative Interceptive Supportive Therapy Protocol, introduced in the late 80’s, may be used as the basis of the clinicians’ effort to prevent peri- implant pathology and provide successful therapies to patients in need.It is therefore obvious that since peri-implant mucositis as well as peri-implantitis are inflammatory diseases of primarily microbial etiology, treatment and prevention must be based on an effort to decrease periodontal pathogens during therapy of peri-implant pathology and on a regular basis, during maintenance therapy.

In this course, a modification of the classical CIST protocol will be presented. Guided Biofilm Therapy is the principal step for every cumulative procedure aiming to treat peri-implant infection, and is advantageous for prevention, for non-surgical and for surgical procedures. The biofilm disclosure offers both clinicians and patients benefit beyond any doubt. Air Flow and Perio Flow with Erythritol are not only successful for the removal of the microbial deposits but also harmless to the implant surface, in contrast to all other methods used for implant surface decontamination, as shown in our own data from electron microscopy. Therefore, it is not proper for Air Flow with Erytrhitol to be included in the term “air abrasives”, since abrasion, by definition, means the loss of tooth or other material structure, by mechanical forces. EMS technology promotes biofilm removal without scratching or removing particles of the material per se. An explanatory nomenclature for “Airflowing” might be “air debriding decontamination”.

The dental professionals must be aware of the importance of harmless biofilm removal from dental implants and familiarize themselves with GBT, for the prevention and treatment of peri-implant pathologies.
