Attachments play a critical role in aligner biomechanics, yet the method used to create and deliver attachments can significantly influence clinical efficiency, predictability, and esthetic outcomes. This CE webinar explores the differences between traditional attachment creation methods and custom attachment systems delivered via pre-fabricated trays. Participants will examine common challenges associated with conventional attachment workflows—such as technique sensitivity, variability in attachment shape, excess composite cleanup, and inconsistent engagement—and compare them with newer custom approaches designed to improve consistency and streamline clinical procedures. Practical considerations related to treatment planning, attachment placement, and bonding best practices will be discussed to help clinicians make informed decisions when selecting an attachment strategy for aligner therapy.

Oral health for older adults is an increasingly significant challenge in dentistry today. As people age, their risk of developing caries, periodontal disease, and other oral health complications rises. This heightened risk is often exacerbated by systemic health conditions, polypharmacy, and decreased dexterity, which can impact daily hygiene practices. Unlike younger populations, older adults face unique barriers, including complex medical histories, cognitive decline, and notable changes in insurance coverage after retirement. These factors not only affect their access to dental care but also influence how treatments must be planned and delivered. This evidence-based CE webinar equips dental professionals with practical strategies to enhance the quality of care for older adults in dental office settings. Participants will learn to identify the specific caries risk factors associated with aging patients, apply preventive and minimally invasive management strategies, and adjust treatment protocols for medically fragile individuals. The webinar will also address the impact of changing insurance structures after retirement on access to care, as well as how dental teams can navigate these challenges to provide effective and patient-centered outcomes.

Burnout is more than just feeling tired — it’s a serious occupational phenomenon affecting dental professionals at every level. From packed schedules and patient anxiety to perfectionism and lack of autonomy, dentistry is especially vulnerable to chronic stress. This CE webinar helps participants recognize the early signs of burnout, understand the factors that contribute to it, and learn practical, sustainable tools to prevent or recover from burnout — individually and as a team.

This CE webinar focuses on integrating photography into daily practice to enhance restorative and esthetic outcomes, patient education and informed consent, streamline office protocols and efficiency, as well as boost self-promotion of their work. Attendees will learn practical techniques for using dental photography, using different camera set ups, to improve case documentation, better communicate treatment plans with patients, and elevate overall clinical precision. Additionally, this webinar will cover how high-quality images can boost marketing efforts and support self-promotion, helping practitioners attract more patients and showcase their skills effectively.
Direct resin posterior restorations can be challenging to blend with the surrounding tooth structure for several reasons ranging from discoloration of underlying tooth structure that can result when replacing an old amalgam that stained the dentin, teeth discolored due to tetracycline or other things related to when the tooth developed, tooth shades that do not fit standard Vita shades, to enamel and dentin that varies in shade on the tooth. Luckily, advances in restorative composite materials have allowed development of single shade resin materials for direct restorations, offering a simpler process using fewer materials to achieve excellent aesthetics that blends with the surrounding tooth. In this CE webinar, the benefits of using a universal shade composite to simplify direct resin restorations for use for Class I and II restorations, Class V restorations and core buildups will be discussed.
This is not your father's composite webinar. Dr. John Gammichia, a full time private practice dentist, lives in the real world. A world where people break cusps and can't afford a build-up and onlay/crown. So what do you do? Pull it?! How about an exquisite 2,3,4 or 5 cusp composite restoration? Of course, we will start with the class I and the class II restorations. We will of adhesion and some of the current biomimetic philosophy. Then we will build from this knowledge. How do you handle uncomfortably big restorations or deep decay? How about big AND deep restorations? How about cracks? Lastly, we will discuss your obstacles to this type of dentistry...do they last or can I make any money doing dentistry this way? This CE webinar will be fun but Dr. Gammichia wants you to feel a little uncomfortable...you will be challenged. By the end of the webinar you will be saying "Holy Cow! I Didn't Know You Could do that with Composite."

Whether due to insufficient bone, medical contraindications, financial constraints, or patient preferences, single-tooth implants aren’t the solution for every case. That’s where fiber-reinforced bridges come in. To tell us all about the wonders of fiber-reinforced bridges is our guest, Dr. Marvin Chacon. With over 15 years of clinical dentistry experience, he obtained his Master's in Aesthetic Dentistry from King's College London in 2022. As a clinical trainer and speaker, he focuses on modern dental materials and innovative techniques under the "minimum Intervention" approach.

According to Dr. Brian Novy, the application of fluoride varnish is, hands down, the most significant procedure we can do for our patients. But as with any procedure, there’s a right way—and a wrong way—to apply fluoride varnish. Dr. Novy will shed light on common mistakes that can undermine its effectiveness, a phenomenon he calls the "fluoride bomb." We’ll discuss what can go wrong during application, how to avoid these pitfalls, and what steps you can take to ensure your patients receive the full benefits of this essential preventive treatment. Dr. Brian Novy is a practicing dentist in Boston MA. He is President of the National CAMBRA Coalition, faculty at Harvard School of Dental Medicine and Western University of Health Sciences, and consumer representative for the US Food and Drug Administration Dental Products Panel.

We'll be addressing a wide range of patients that have lots of saliva, an infinite source of blood, all stored in their gingiva, a gag reflex that's activated as soon as you tell them what you're about to do, and tongues that are more muscular and stronger than my biceps. So lets get started with a dentist that thinks out of the box and is always looking for a better and faster way to do things. Dr. Ankur Gupta is our guest, a general dentist from North Ridgeville, OH.
