Dental Technology Showcase (DTS) has announced its impressive line-up and innovative conference programme, as it makes a welcome return to the NEC Birmingham on 16-17 May. The unmissable event is set to inspire and empower dental technicians and labs seeking to expand their network and be at the forefront of industry developments.  

Cutting-edge Content  

The 2025 conference programme has been carefully curated and offers a broad range of topics for every member of the dental team. With over 50 leading experts, practitioners, and industry innovators presenting across more than 40 hours of free content, delegates will gain valuable insights and access to groundbreaking research. 

Attendees can benefit from up to 12 free CPD hours across two days, with 3 dynamic show theatres hosting seminars and workshops on the latest trends in clinical practice. These sessions will cover a wide variety of specialist subjects ideal for laboratory owners, clinical dental technicians and dental technicians seeking to enhance their skills and stay abreast with topical issues and trends. 

From integrating analogue and digital into full arch rehabilitation to the hybridisation & modification of The Lancaster Lingualised Functional Appliance, and from digital workflows to assessing orthodontic treatment outcomes – the DTS programme will help you meet the evolving demands of both dental practices and patients. 

Exploring Digital Dentistry and Innovations 

As digital technology transforms dental practice, DTS will showcase the latest innovations, materials and cutting-edge equipment from AI to CAD design, implant planning, 3D printing, and intraoral photogrammetry. New this year, the Digital Dentistry Theatre will feature live demonstrations and engaging sessions from the IDDA, offering hands-on opportunities for dental technicians and practitioners to explore the latest tools and best practices. 

Business and Mental Health Support 

For those navigating the complexities of running a successful dental laboratory, DTS will be offering sessions focused on lab management, marketing strategies, and financial planning. Join thought-provoking discussions looking at what the future holds for lab owners and managers, as well as finding practical solutions to the challenges you face and new opportunities that can be explored such as growing your dental laboratory business through apprenticeships.  

Sessions will also focus on mental health and burnout prevention, with ConfiDental announced as the official charity partner for 2025, highlighting the importance of mental wellbeing in dentistry.
