Under the theme “The Future of Dentistry”, thousands of dental professionals from across the UK and beyond came together to explore real-world challenges and next-generation solutions. The programme featured more than 100 renowned speakers delivering cutting-edge clinical and business content across six theatres, including the brand-new Keynote Theatre.

Delegates benefitted from over 100 hours of enhanced CPD, with sessions tailored for the entire dental team – from practice owners and associates to therapists, hygienists, nurses, and practice managers.

A few highlights included:

• An inspiring session, ‘The panel I wish I’d heard sooner’, where Raabiha Maan, Devinia Coco Lavan-Iswaran, Chinwe Akuonu and Shandy Vijayan shared candid lessons for women in dentistry
• Milad Shadrooh, ‘The Singing Dentist’, who brought his trademark humour and insight to ‘Emotional dentistry’, exploring the vital role of empathy, communication, and human connection in patient care
• Kash Qureshi, Clinical Dental Technician and Owner of Bremadent Dental Laboratory and Swissedent Denture Clinic, who gave delegates a behind-the-scenes look with ‘A day in the life of a new generation dental lab’, spotlighting the latest technology and workflows shaping lab–clinic partnerships
• Dr Ben Atkins, Professor Iain Chapple and Professor Tim Newton, who joined forces for ‘Managing the complex needs of high-risk patients’, offering fresh perspectives on prevention, systemic health, and behaviour change
• Friend or foe? The role of social media in today’s dental practice’, chaired by Trishala Lakhani, which sparked lively debate among Sarika Shah, Chinwe Akuonu, Manrina Rhode and Niall Hutchinson. The panellists shared candid insights into how platforms like Instagram, TikTok and YouTube are reshaping patient expectations, brand building and professional reputation – while also examining the risks, pressures and ethical dilemmas that come with an always-online presence.

Alongside the world-class education programme, delegates explored innovations from more than 180 leading suppliers and manufacturers, taking advantage of exclusive offers, live demonstrations and hands-on training.

“Dentistry Show London has become a defining moment in the dental calendar,” said Senior Show Manager Stewart Turner. “This year’s show brought together a fantastic community of dental professionals for two days of high-quality education, innovation, and networking. The vibrant atmosphere across the exhibition and theatres showed just how valued this event is within the profession.”

As well as the packed theatres and exhibitor stands, networking was at the heart of this year’s show, with thousands of delegates connecting with peers, colleagues and new partners to share ideas and build lasting relationships.

Dentistry Show London will return to Excel London on 9-10 October 2026, promising another unmissable two days of inspiration, education, and innovation for the whole dental team. Register your interest at london.dentistryshow.co.uk/register-interest
