The European Network of Dental Education (ENDE) is an educational program which takes dental education to the next level. The modules of ENDE are focused on the foundation of our profession, to collect enough data and evaluate them to be able to create a proper treatment plan. This requires diagnostic and prognostic skills and often the ability to work multidisciplinary with oral surgeons, orthodontists, periodontists etc.
