In the dental space we seek consistency and predictability. It is easy to rely on the "that is what I learned in dental school" philosophy for day-to-day clinical success. New developments in techniques and materials offer great clinical advantages, but can create stress of the unknown and disruption of current office workflows. Changing systems and techniques, or utilizing a new product can be done with a clear road map to implement changes chairside, and understanding messaging for patients. Participants will attend a course that is designed to alleviate the stress of implementing a new system, by creating a working roadmap for office transition to new workflows, software, and clear patient communication. The CE webinar will cover the basics of aligner design, materials, and mechanical advantages to understand the importance of product selection. The webinar will cover the top ten why's and how's that can alleviate office stress and improve patient communication. After the webinar, the attendee should be able to construct a plan to change aligner systems or implement an aligner program within their practice.

Digital dentistry and artificial intelligence are transforming the way clinicians diagnose, treatment plan, communicate with patients, and deliver care. This CE webinar explores practical applications of intraoral scanning, digital smile design, CAD/CAM technologies, 3D printing, and AI-assisted treatment planning tools that can be incorporated into everyday clinical workflows. Special emphasis will be placed on digital smile design platforms which utilize facial references and clinician-specific design preferences to create personalized esthetic outcomes. Through clinical cases and real-world examples, attendees will gain insight into how digital technologies can enhance efficiency, accuracy, patient engagement, and treatment outcomes. Clinical cases will also demonstrate how adhesive protocols and restorative materials can be seamlessly integrated into digital workflows from treatment planning through final restoration delivery. Participants will leave with practical strategies for implementing digital workflows and AI-powered solutions in both private practice and academic settings.

Dental unit waterlines remain one of the most overlooked infection prevention challenges in dentistry, yet contaminated water can have serious consequences for both patients and dental teams. This engaging CE webinar separates fact from fiction while giving participants practical, evidence-based strategies they can implement immediately. We'll explore how biofilm forms, why it can be so difficult to eliminate, and what current research tells us about testing, treatment, maintenance, and documentation. You'll also discover how equipment design can play a role in reducing biofilm formation, including newer delivery systems engineered to minimize stagnant water and simplify long-term waterline maintenance. Whether you're just getting started or refining an existing waterline program, you'll leave with a realistic roadmap for keeping your dental unit waterlines clean, compliant, and working for you—not against you.

Infection control in the dental operatory often focuses on major protocols, yet many risks arise from small, routine oversights that occur during everyday procedures. These seemingly minor gaps such as improper handling of materials, inconsistent surface asepsis, and lapses in workflow can significantly increase the potential for cross-contamination and compromise both patient and provider safety.
This one-hour CE webinar will highlight common infection control missteps observed in clinical settings and provide practical, compliant strategies to reduce risk. Special attention will be given to the handling and management of chairside materials, including restorative products, and how proper utilization can support safer clinical workflows. Participants will leave with actionable techniques to strengthen infection control practices, improve compliance with OSHA and CDC guidelines, and create a more consistent culture of safety within the operatory.

The only constant in dental materials is change! Technological and chemical innovations are offering impressive advancements. Today’s conventional composites offer clinicians two options: First, the esthetic traditional layering technique and second, the bulk-fill technique. The former being the choice for most restorations in the anterior smile zone and the latter, often selected for the posterior regions of the mouth. While bulk-fill materials typically are deep-curing, time saving and offer clinical efficiency, they too often lack the esthetic properties required for beautiful esthetically demanding anterior restorations. For this reason, most clinicians have a second composite system in office that is designed to be placed in two-millimeter increments and will sometimes require a variety of shades to meet the esthetic demands. A new next-generation of resin composites is emerging. One that offers you the clinical efficiency of a bulk-fill, with an easy cluster shade-matching protocol and phenomenal esthetics! With outstanding, non-sticky handling and excellent polishability, perhaps now you only need one class of material for all of your restorative needs. At the conclusion of the CE webinar the attendees will have a clearer understanding of the clinical impact that this new chemistry and technology can have on their everyday restorative dentistry. More importantly, the attendees can evaluate if these evolutions may have a place in their own clinical practice.
Armed with new clinical guidelines based on recent systematic reviews, clinicians must choose between the comfort of what they’ve always done and what can stop and reverse dental caries. It’s time to move from bonding to chemical fusion.
Deep Marginal Elevations (DME) can be very technique sensitive. Often times if the curing light cannot reach the restorative material due to sheer depth, we must come up with an alternative solution. Dual cured restorative materials have answered that puzzle. Dual cured materials are often misunderstood in the daily routine of a restorative dentist. This is mainly due to the clinician’s high comfort level with traditional light cured composite resins as their “go-to” material. During this CE webinar, I will explain the different mechanics between light cured versus dual cured materials and the role each has on stresses created and the impact on bonding. Then I will give a step by step systematic approach in using a dual cured material to obtain predictable and repeatable results when performing DME procedures. Finally, I will show clinical examples of Deep Marginal Elevations with dual cured materials and tips and tricks help obtain the desired result.

Today we’re chatting with Dr. John Gammichia, a general dentist who’s made a name for himself saving what many would call “bombed out” teeth — all with conservative, direct composite. We’ll dive into how he handles deep decay and pulp exposures, the materials and techniques that make it possible, and how his approach has become a real practice builder — showing that fee-for-service dentistry focused on preserving tooth structure can be both patient-centered and profitable.

According to our guest, Dr. Mauricio Watanabe, a world-respected speaker and clinician, by using a highly filled nano-composite to fabricate the crown, the same material we use for our deep margin elevation and filling in our undercuts, a semi-direct full coverage restoration will provide long-term predictable success. And Dr. Watanabe has years of cases and research to support his opinion. The whole procedure can be done in 30 minutes when pouring your impression with a fast setting silicone material. So if you're looking to practice conservative dentistry and preserve as much natural tooth structure as possible and still deliver a full coverage crown, you might find the semi-direct restoration an excellent option for many of your large caries cases. Dr. Lauren Rainey, a well-respected clinician and KOL will also be joining us.
