Master in Endodontics and Endodontic Microsurgery

The Second-Level Master in Endodontics and Endodontic Microsurgery is offered by the University of Catania, Department of General Surgery and Medical-Surgical Specialities. The programme covers diagnosis, endodontic treatment, post-endodontic restoration, retreatment, microsurgery and trauma management. It includes 265 hours of lectures, exercises on extracted teeth and simulators and clinical activity on real patients. The pathway is aimed at those who wish to deepen and update their skills, with a structure that links theoretical reflection to concrete applications in the relevant professional context.

The master lasts 12 months, is worth 60 credits and is delivered in person in Catania, with compulsory attendance of 80%. A professional internship of 350 hours is provided. The cost is €3,356.

The aim is to train professionals able to manage simple and complex endodontic cases with advanced materials and techniques, while also developing the ability to critically assess the scientific literature. The main career opportunity is private dental practice, with a greater capacity to offer high-quality treatments and a competitive advantage in specialised markets. Upon completion, those who successfully finish the pathway obtain the qualification provided and can use the skills acquired in their own professional field or in further study. Concrete prospects nevertheless depend on each participant's starting profile and experience. Those who work should carefully assess the commitment required, in terms of weekly hours and attendance, to understand whether the programme is compatible with other professional or personal commitments.
