Bonding procedures that perform reliably in permanent teeth can be less predictable when applied to primary teeth. Many clinicians experience frustrations such as early sealant loss, marginal breakdown of pediatric restorations, and bonding failures that seem difficult to explain. Differences in enamel structure, dentin composition, and the clinical conditions commonly encountered in pediatric dentistry create unique challenges for achieving durable adhesion. As a result, clinicians often face issues such as reduced sealant retention, restoration failure, and sensitivity to moisture contamination during pediatric bonding procedures.
This CE webinar examines the structural and chemical differences between primary and permanent teeth and how those differences influence adhesive performance. Participants will review the science behind enamel etching, dentin bonding, and hybrid layer formation in primary teeth, along with practical strategies to improve bond reliability in everyday pediatric practice. The webinar will also explore common causes of bonding failure and practical techniques that help clinicians achieve more consistent outcomes. Real-world protocols will be discussed for managing moisture contamination, optimizing etch patterns, and selecting adhesive materials that support reliable bonding in young patients. Attendees will gain practical insights that can improve restoration longevity, enhance sealant retention, and reduce clinical frustration when bonding to primary teeth.

Musculoskeletal pain is nearly universal in dentistry but it doesn’t have to be. In this CE webinar, we’ll break down the top ergonomic mistakes dental clinicians make every day, including forward head posture, shoulder strain, twisting, reaching, and poor patient positioning.
During this CE webinar, you’ll learn how operatory layout and equipment design can either contribute to these patterns or dramatically reduce them. Through real clinical examples, we’ll explore how proper chair positioning, delivery setup, lighting alignment, and movement strategies can support neutral posture and long-term career longevity.

Enhancing or restoring a smile with direct composite resins can be challenging. This CE webinar has been specially designed to present the most up-to-date protocols for direct anterior composite restorations employing simplified techniques to ensure consistent and predictable outcomes. You will gain insight into injectable composite, layered composite techniques for composite veneers and Class IV, the use of diagnostic mock-ups, and effective finishing and polishing techniques. You will understand how to incorporate long-lasting and tooth-like direct composite to your daily practice as a reliable alternative to ceramic while practicing minimally invasive dentistry.

Dental hygienists play a vital role in delivering preventive oral health care. In recent years, the number of CDT procedure codes related to preventive procedures and products has expanded significantly. Many hygienists may not be fully aware of ADA’s Current Dental Terminology (CDT) descriptors, which outline the rationale and mechanisms of action for these products. As more patients express concerns about fluoride use in caries management, they are turning to hygienists for alternative recommendations to protect against decay. Which products should you choose, and which CDT procedure codes apply? Similarly, hypersensitivity complaints are on the rise. Patients often report, “My teeth are sensitive when you touch them.” What products can you recommend chairside? Which can be sent home? And how do you document the appropriate CDT procedure code? This CE webinar also introduces ICD-10-CM diagnostic codes that will support the medical necessity of preventive and therapeutic procedures. With insurance carriers starting to require these diagnostic codes on the updated 2024 Dental Claim form (Box 34a), understanding how to integrate them into documentation is essential for accurate claim submission and compliance.

There is a concept in dentistry that somehow adhesion is better and yet we see amalgams and crowns, held on by zinc phosphate cement, are still working in patients mouths 40+ years later but we see failure rates and replacements of various adhesive dentistry in 5-10 years. Where techniques use to be more simplistic with less steps and basic fundamentals we achieved success, and now we throw out many of those concepts and replace them with adhesion, we expect to find longevity. Are you seeing longevity or are you seeing more sensitivity, problems, failures or costly redos? This CE webinar is a look at where we are at with modern adhesion and what we believe we know. The goal is to give you some systems, tools and thoughts to consider to help you and your patients to have better longevity and success in the restorative dentistry you provide.
Advancements in technology and materials have shifted the field of dentistry. As a result, providers opt for more conservative restorative options for enhanced smile esthetics. Additive and minimally invasive restorations rely on chemical adhesion over mechanical retention with both their direct and indirect restorations. The road to reliability in adhesive dentistry is paved through consistency and reliance on adhering to science. Developing systems and protocols and sticking to them ensures long term stability with cosmetic restorations, which in turn results in happy patients with reliable outcomes. But how does one develop the proper systems and protocols? In this CE webinar, providers will learn how to simplify yet optimize their isolation techniques and bonding protocols to achieve more predictable long-term success with both their direct and indirect restorative outcomes.
Unlock the potential of your dental practice with minimally invasive care techniques that boost patient satisfaction and practice profitability. This CE webinar will introduce you to the latest products and methods that reduce drilling, improve patient comfort, and lead to better outcomes. Discover practical insights on when and how to use these innovative products, empowering your dental team to work more efficiently and enhance both patient satisfaction and practice profitability.
