From Europe to the United States, dental professionals gathered in Zagreb for an intensive educational experience dedicated to Soft Tissue Management Around Implants.

ZAGREB, CROATIA — 10–12 SEPTEMBER 2026 — For three remarkable days, Zagreb became a meeting point for clinicians united by one ambition: to advance their knowledge, challenge their clinical thinking, and pursue a higher standard in implant dentistry.

Organized by Delta Dent Academy, the three-day Soft Tissue Management Around Implants course brought Dr. Ricardo Kern to Zagreb for an intensive program attended by doctors from Croatia, Bosnia & Herzegovina, the United States, Belgium, Portugal, and Greece.

The international composition of the group gave the course a character that extended far beyond traditional continuing education.

Different countries. Different clinical backgrounds. Different professional journeys.

Yet inside one room, those differences became a strength.

Throughout the program, Dr. Kern guided participants through advanced concepts in peri-implant soft tissue management, sharing his clinical philosophy, surgical approaches, decision-making principles, and experience in creating stable and predictable outcomes around dental implants.

Complex clinical discussions became opportunities for exchange. Questions became conversations. And three intensive days of education gradually developed into something larger — a community of professionals learning from one another.

For Delta Dent Academy, Zagreb represented exactly what international dental education should stand for.

It is not simply about bringing an educator to a city.

It is about bringing people together.

A clinician travelling from the United States can exchange perspectives with a colleague from Croatia. A doctor from Belgium can discuss clinical experiences with professionals from Bosnia & Herzegovina, Portugal, or Greece. Different languages and different paths disappear around the same surgical table when everyone shares the same commitment to becoming better.

That is where the real value of education begins.

The Zagreb edition also marked another important chapter in the collaboration between Dr. Ricardo Kern and Delta Dent Academy, continuing a journey dedicated to making advanced education accessible to an increasingly international community of clinicians.

After three demanding days, participants left Zagreb carrying more than protocols, techniques, and clinical knowledge.

They left with new perspectives, new professional relationships, and the motivation to return to their practices and continue raising their own standards.

Six nations. Three intensive days. One shared pursuit of excellence.

Zagreb showed once again that when education crosses borders, dentistry becomes the language everyone understands.
