The program tackled the questions residents are thinking about as they prepare for the next stage of their careers. Dr. Gordon Lai shared lessons in <em>Things I Wish I Knew in Endo Residency<\/em>, while Dr. Monica Estes explored compensation in today\u2019s market. Dr. Rene Chu offered perspective on postgraduate life, Dr. Rob Roda took on the importance of referral relationships in <em>10 Ways to Lose a Referral<\/em>, and Dr. Adham Abdel Azim closed the educational program with a clinical look at cervical root resorption. Residents also had the opportunity to learn more about the profession through Get to Know Your Specialty, featuring Drs. Joseph Dutner, Craig Hirschberg, W. Craig Noblett and Yehuda Joseph Benjamin. Between sessions, the exhibit hall, meals with corporate partners and social events at Ballpark Village gave residents time to connect with colleagues from programs across the country and with the broader endodontic community. Together, the weekend offered a mix of practical career insight, clinical education and the kind of peer connection that makes APICES a unique part of the resident experience.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/savingyourteeth\/albums\/72177720335253494\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here to view photos from APICES and Educator Workshop!<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Save the Date: APICES 2027 <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>August 20\u201321, 2027<br \/>\nMarriott New Orleans | New Orleans, Louisiana<\/p>\n<p>Registration is expected to open in early July 2027, with additional program details to come.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>APICES 2026 brought endodontic residents from across the country to St. Louis for two days of learning, conversation and connection beyond the residency experience.
