Dentsply Sirona has officially opened a new venue which joins many others worldwide to form part of the Dentsply Sirona Academy. The opening of the new facility took place on 7 June at Dentsply Sirona's UK Headquarters in Weybridge.

The Dentsply Sirona Academy exists to address the continuing educational needs of all dental professionals, providing worldwide access to evidence-based, scientifically sound, theoretical and practical content. The Dentsply Sirona Academy provides over 11,000 courses annually in more than 80 countries, delivering education to approximately 350,000 dental professionals every year, covering an extensive range of clinical, technical and practice excellence programmes.

The Dentsply Sirona Academy in Weybridge is the embodiment of Dentsply Sirona's educational philosophy. This multi-use facility will showcase products and equipment in a clinical setting and allow customer training to take place. In addition, it will provide a UK base for Dentsply Sirona's extensive in-house clinical and technical education programmes that enable dentists and technicians to not only hear about how an integrated solution can improve their workflow, but to experience it first-hand.

The specially designed facility incorporates a Clinical Skills Suite featuring an eight station simulation clinic complete with phantom heads. A showroom includes treatment centres, handpieces and digital radiography, including fully functioning examples of the Galileos cone beam imaging system and Orthophos XG3D. Having this equipment on site enables visitors to appreciate the streamlined efficiency that can be gained by adopting an integrated workflow. These benefits are exhibited across specific disciplines including, restorative dentistry, implants, endodontics and orthodontics.

A 30-seat classroom style lecture room can be rapidly transformed to accommodate 60+ in theatre style, providing a flexible resource that can accommodate almost any training or education requirement. And of course, state-of-the-art audio visual equipment makes these facilities amongst the finest in the UK.
