2026 IBIZA EDUCATION RETREAT / IER26 (Ibiza, 11-12 September 2026)

The 2026 Ibiza Education Retreat (IER26) is a premier dental education event that combines advanced clinical education with luxury retreat experiences in one of Europe's most inspiring settings. This two-day seminar focuses on creating beauty through understanding the fundamental principles of natural tooth aesthetics and recreating nature through modern dental techniques. Participants will explore three-dimensional digital concepts of tooth structure, appreciating the intricate beauty of each detail while delving deep into light, optics, and the unique anatomical structures that define a perfect smile.

The educational program encompasses comprehensive coverage of aesthetic dentistry principles, porcelain restorations, and composite layering techniques. The morning sessions provide a deep dive into fundamental principles that define natural beauty, including aesthetic checklist parameters, morphology, function, smile design, histo-anatomy, color properties such as opacity and opalescence, and surface texture. Participants will engage in mini exercises and practical demonstrations, including hands-on experience with opalescent materials to understand how shape, texture, and polish affect aesthetic outcomes. The second morning session takes participants through a comprehensive journey of the complete porcelain workflow from initial patient intake through final cementation, covering photography protocols, tooth preparation techniques, impression taking, communication strategies with dental technicians, feldspathic porcelain lab workflows, and proper cementation protocols.

The afternoon session focuses on practical, guided demonstrations of aesthetic composite layering, illustrating the artistry behind natural restorations. Attendees will observe all layering steps, tinting techniques, surface texture creation, and finishing and polishing protocols. The event welcomes general dentists, cosmetic dentists, prosthodontists, and dental professionals seeking to enhance their aesthetic and restorative skills. All lectures are conducted in English, and participants earn accreditation points and certificates of attendance in accordance with RIZIV guidelines from the Belgian Dental Association.
