IFED World Congress 2026

The 14^th World Congress of the International Federation of Esthetic Dentistry (IFED Seoul 2026), held in conjunction with the 39^th KAED Annual Symposium, will take place from 13 to 15 November at the COEX Convention and Exhibition Centre in Seoul in South Korea. Organised by the Korean Academy of Esthetic Dentistry (KAED) alongside the IFED, the congress centres on the theme “Evolution and Revolution in Esthetic Dentistry,” addressing advancements that extend beyond dental aesthetics to comprehensive facial and body harmony.

The scientific programme divides its core focus into two key contrasts: Pink and white (soft and hard tissue aesthetics) and digital and analogue (restorative techniques and workflow advancements). Designed for an international audience of dentists, dental technicians and specialists, the event serves as a platform to highlight the global influence of “K-Dentistry” while hosting the grand finale of the IFED International Challenge competition and offering participants a immersion into Korean cultural history, culinary arts and entertainment.
