New for 2026: The ADI Implant Theatre
Among the exciting additions for next year’s show is the brand-new ADI Implant Theatre, delivered in partnership with the Association of Dental Implantology (ADI).
Designed to provide a focused platform for all levels of implant dentistry experience – from those already passionate about the field to practitioners looking to get started – the ADI Implant Theatre will offer practical, real-world learning that delegates can take straight back to practice.
Sessions will spotlight cutting-edge techniques, advanced surgical workflows, and the latest developments in digital planning and full-arch rehabilitation, all led by some of the UK’s most experienced implantologists. With a focus on evidence-based outcomes and sustainable success, the programme aims to support improved clinical outcomes and long-term patient care.
“The introduction of the ADI Implant Theatre reflects the ongoing evolution of BDCDS and our commitment to delivering content that meets the real educational needs of today’s dental professionals,” said Stewart Turner, Senior Show Manager. “Whether you’re refining your implant workflow or exploring new treatment possibilities, this theatre offers the tools, insights and inspiration to elevate your practice.”
A must-attend event for every member of the dental team
Following on from the footsteps of the phenomenal Dentistry Show London (DSL) in October 2025, the event promises to be bigger and better than ever – providing an unparalleled exploration of the latest innovations in dental technology and practice, as well as the best treatments available for patients.
More than 400 exhibitors are expected, showcasing the very latest in dental technology, materials and services, while a host of internationally renowned speakers will take to the stage to deliver ground-breaking and inspirational talks on a wide range of topics, including clinical updates, business strategies and the latest in aesthetic and digital dentistry.
In addition to the new implant-dedicated theatre, BDCDS 2026 will feature over 150 free eCPD hours, multiple conference streams tailored for different team roles, and exceptional networking opportunities.
With a strong reputation for bringing the dental community together for personal and professional growth, this is one event not to be missed.
Stewart adds: “BDCDS remains the definitive annual meeting place for learning, collaboration and professional growth and we can’t wait to open our doors again next year. Make sure you block out the 15-16 May 2026 in your calendar, sign up and stay tuned for more exciting developments in early 2026.”
