A step by step digital workflow to improve success rates on single and multiple-unit tooth and implant restorations will be presented. The main objective of this CE webinar is to show how treatment time optimization and better clinical outcomes are possible with the implementation of digital tools. This webinar will show how to collect patient's initial data to create the "Digital Clone", discussing key points from photography setups to intraoral scanning tips and tricks for better communication with the dental laboratory. Design and fabrication of highly esthetic provisional and definitive restorations with 3D printed and milled material options will be explained to improve clinical efficiency on tooth and implant-supported restorations.

Modern periodontal and peri-implant therapy is increasingly guided by biologically driven, minimally invasive principles aimed at effective biofilm disruption while preserving hard and soft tissues. The integration of piezoelectric instrumentation and air-polishing technologies allows clinicians to tailor biofilm management strategies according to the specific clinical indication.
This CE webinar will describe the application of thin piezoelectric instrumentation for minimally invasive non-surgical periodontal therapy. The role of subgingival air polishing in the management of peri-implant mucositis will be discussed, with an emphasis on effective biofilm disruption while preserving implant surface integrity. In more advanced peri-implant disease, supra- and submucosal air-polishing approaches will be illustrated as part of a structured therapeutic protocol.
Through clinical cases and protocol-based workflows, the webinar will demonstrate how the appropriate selection and integration of these technologies, guided by biological rationale and disease severity, can enhance precision, tissue preservation, and long-term periodontal and peri-implant stability.

Two colleagues discuss recent advancements in technology-driven approaches to moving and reshaping teeth. Direct-printed clear aligner therapy is being adopted by a growing number of practitioners in both orthodontic and general practice settings. Dr. Vargo, a seasoned orthodontist, shares how printed aligners have influenced his daily treatment decisions and how this category of appliance differs from thermoformed systems currently available. Dr. Shaw, a general dentist of 25 years who recently incorporated printed aligner therapy into his practice, discusses the clinical outcomes he has observed. Together they review how they evaluate which cases carry a high probability of success and how they approach limiting treatment times and revisions. They also address referral relationships between general practice and orthodontics, and a team-based approach to case generation.
Dr. Shaw will also cover minimally invasive cosmetic veneer technique using a custom, digitally designed 3D-printed matrix to injection mold chairside composite veneers - a technique he has used for nearly a decade. He will review the current generation of this matrix technology and discuss workflow considerations for no-prep and minimal-prep composite veneers, including factors relevant to clinicians new to the technique.

Dental fear and anxiety are among the most common reasons patients delay or avoid oral healthcare. The dental environment is filled with sensory stimuli, including bright lights, unfamiliar sounds, smells, tastes, and touch sensations that can contribute to distress and discomfort. For individuals who are neurodivergent, have intellectual or developmental disabilities, have experienced trauma, or experience heightened anxiety, sensory processing differences may further impact their ability to tolerate dental treatment.
This CE webinar introduces dental professionals to the role of sensory processing in the patient experience. It explores evidence-based sensory adaptations that can reduce anxiety, improve cooperation, and support more positive dental visits. Participants will learn practical, low-cost strategies to create a more sensory-friendly clinical environment and enhance patient-centered care for individuals across the lifespan.

Clean and disinfect with confidence! Knowing that the typical dental practice encounters as a wide range of microorganisms every day, none of which can be seen by the naked eye, Dr. Fluent offers tips for ensuring properly sanitized surfaces.
The success rate of dental restorations varies significantly depending on the restorative material used, and the protocols the clinician employs given the clinical situation. This CE webinar is designed to provide dentists with crucial insights into the most commonly used direct and indirect restorative materials in daily practice and how clinician’s strategies and protocols in using these materials impact the success rate of dental procedures, improving both efficiency and outcomes.
The most used materials in today’s general practice are burs, bonding agents, and composites for direct restorations. The evolution of this group of materials, in particular, is amazing. Today’s light cure resins are light years ahead of the materials that we thought were great 20 years ago. The evolution of materials includes base or lining materials when the proximity to the pulp requires some form of pulpal protection. Calcium has been proven to be a critical adjunct to the armamentarium of all general dentists performing routine decay excavation and tooth restoration. This CE webinar is designed for the busy dentist who wants to stay current with the available materials and concepts of efficient placement of tooth-colored restorations. We will discuss what matters most in pulpal protection material selection, depending upon location and occlusal load put on the restoration. Reduction and elimination of post-operative sensitivity will be addressed.

Today we’re talking about direct restorative materials that can truly change the course of your patients’ dental health — and no, not just composite, but glass ionomer and resin-modified glass ionomer. Used strategically, these materials can help patients avoid a lifetime of fillings, crowns, and repeat dental work. And adopting this conservative approach doesn’t mean sacrificing revenue — in fact, building a practice focused on preserving healthy tooth structure attracts patients who value care that’s truly in their best interest. Joining us is Dr. Brian Nový, a leading cariologist at Virginia Commonwealth University with faculty appointments at Harvard and Western University, and a private practice owner in Salem, Massachusetts. He’ll explain how glass ionomer and RMGI bond to teeth, their clinical applications, address concerns about strength and aesthetics, and show how they can transform long-term patient outcomes.
