The paper does not attempt a comprehensive review of endodontic education throughout the world but rather it aims to highlight certain aspects of teaching that may initiate discussion on endodontic education in Great Britain. To this end the various aspects of teaching are considered —the importance of the subject in the curriculum at undergraduate and postgraduate level the way in which the subject is taught and some details of clinical technique. A literature search revealed several papers on the teaching of endodontics outside Great Britain.

This article focuses on short papers which were presented at the First Workshop of Endotontics for Teachers of Conservative Dentistry held at the Institute of Dental Surgery, Eastman Dental Hospital, London, Great Britain in October 1978.
