EFP announces Perio Master Clinic 2026 in Baku: a unique hands-on experience on the Perio-Restorative Interplay

Brussels, 3 October 2025 - The European Federation of Periodontology (EFP) invites oral health professionals from around the globe to attend Perio Master Clinic 2026, taking place in Baku, Azerbaijan, on 6–7 March 2026. The 2026 edition will focus on The Perio-Restorative Interplay, highlighting the crucial collaboration between periodontal and restorative approaches in delivering predictable, aesthetic, and durable results—even in complex clinical cases.

This two-day event offers a unique opportunity to learn directly from world-leading experts in periodontology, implantology, and restorative dentistry. Under the guiding principle “what you learn over the weekend, you’ll put into practice on Monday”, the programme is carefully designed to blend evidence-based science with practical applications that clinicians can integrate immediately into daily practice.

Professor Mariano Sanz, scientific chair, explained: “The Perio Master Clinic is not just another congress, and in 2026, we are putting special emphasis on the interplay between periodontal and restorative approaches, with sessions that go far beyond theory to deliver practical, evidence-based solutions. You can already explore the programme on the EFP website.”

First time in Azerbaijan

Perio Master Clinic 2026 marks the first time this event will be held in Azerbaijan. “It is an honour for us to welcome colleagues from around the world for this important event,” said Professor Cavid Ahmedbeyli, congress chair. “Baku offers a unique blend of tradition and modernity, and we look forward to sharing both our city and this outstanding scientific experience with the international dental community.”

A world-class programme and setting

The programme will feature internationally renowned experts, offering sessions that connect knowledge with practice.

“EFP Perio Master Clinics are all about bridging knowledge and practice”, highlights Professor Spyros Vassilopoulos, EFP president. “In Baku we will once again create an environment where clinicians can learn directly from leading experts, refine their skills, and immediately apply them in their daily practice. This is the kind of education that defines the EFP. We look forward to welcoming you to Baku, on 6 and 7 March 2026.”
