Bridges Portugal 2026 – Connecting Innovation and Clinical Excellence

In a world where dentistry evolves faster than ever, staying ahead requires more than relying on new products. It’s about connecting knowledge, innovation, and people. That’s exactly what Bridges Portugal 2026 stands for.

After seven remarkable years of bringing people and knowledge together across Brazil and North America, Ultradent Products is proud to announce the first-ever Bridges event in Europe. Hosted from 21-23 May 2026 in Lisbon, Portugal, Bridges welcomes leading dental professionals, researchers, and innovators from around the world to exchange ideas, explore new technologies, and strengthen the bridge between science and daily clinical practice.

The program covers all aspects of modern aesthetic dentistry. From hands-on workshops to cutting-edge lectures with world-renowned experts, participants can look forward to an overwhelming educational experience that combines high-quality learning, networking, and inspiration. Over 16 hours of expert-led continuing education provide valuable insights and practical skills, recognized with an official Bridges Portugal Certificate and up to 16 CE credits, depending on the attendee's national regulations.

Beyond the lectures, attendees can enjoy outstanding hospitality, including curated refreshments, lunches, and an exclusive cocktail reception. Bridges also features access to the Ultradent Products trade fair, showcasing the latest innovations. As a special highlight, participants may join an optional hands-on workshop featuring the cutting-edge Gemini EVO™ diode laser.

Dr. Renato Miotto Palo, member of the clinical advisory board at Ultradent Products, strikingly states: “Bridges is not an event. It’s an experience.” He adds: “Every little aspect is carefully planned: from the selection of speakers and the information flow between the lectures, to the location, the atmosphere, and much more. Nothing is left to chance. We want our guests to feel comfortable and perfectly cared for.”

That philosophy particularly extends to the scientific program. Bridges is designed around storytelling rather than isolated lectures. The speakers complement each other, creating a seamless narrative of ideas and clinical insights. “Bridges is a family and it’s an honor to be there,” says Dr. Palo.

The participants will also receive a unique Chairside Guide, a digital playbook containing all clinical information, step-by-step techniques, and stunning visuals from the sessions. This practical guideline helps attendees apply their learning in their own practice. From recent graduates to experienced clinicians, Bridges offers valuable insights for every skill level. Stay tuned: you won’t want to miss it.
