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.

This CE webinar explores how 3D printing is transforming the digital workflow for guided implant surgery, from treatment planning through surgical guide fabrication and implant placement. Participants will learn how to integrate CBCT and intraoral scan data, evaluate implant planning software, and develop predictable treatment plans using digital technology. The webinar will also cover the design, 3D printing, and post-processing of surgical guides and restorations, with a focus on applying guided surgery protocols to improve implant accuracy, efficiency, and patient outcomes.

Adult patients are the largest growing population seeking orthodontic treatment. Many adult patients seek clear aligners as an esthetic alternative to traditional bracket and wire treatment. Yet many adult patients present with complex restorative treatment needs that can be complimented by orthodontic treatment for improved clinical outcomes with interdisciplinary treatment plans. Adult patients require a different patient experience and seek convenient and efficient treatment. The course will cover the basics of aligner design, materials, and mechanical advantages to understand the importance of product selection in complex adult treatment plans. The CE webinar will also explore the digital workflow and digital ecosystem for office efficiency and optimal patient experience. After the webinar, the attendee should be able to evaluate and select an aligner system for complex interdisciplinary cases, and evaluate how to implement a digital workflow for enhanced treatment planning and patient experience.

This comprehensive CE webinar explores the unique oral health challenges that arise during key hormonal phases in a woman's life: puberty, pregnancy, and menopause. Participants will gain insight into the biological mechanisms behind oral-systemic changes, identify gender-specific risk factors, and learn evidence-based strategies for prevention, treatment, and patient education. Emphasis is placed on interdisciplinary collaboration, lifespan oral health promotion, and culturally sensitive care for female patients.
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.
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 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.

This episode addresses how MTA—mineral trioxide aggregate—can be used as both an indirect and direct pulp cap and is ideal for perforations. MTA isn’t just an endodontist's material—it’s very much a general dentist’s material as well. Especially now, as more of us focus on minimally invasive dentistry and are doing everything we can to preserve the natural tooth. Our guest is Dr. Ryan Walsh, who maintains a full time private practice in Keller, TX. He is a Diplomate of the American Board of Endodontics (ABE) and serves on the Scientific Advisory Board of the Journal of Endodontics. Dr. Walsh maintains an appointment as Adjunct Assistant Professor at Texas A&M College of Dentistry and is actively involved in clinical research pertaining to bioactive materials, resorption processes, and clinical outcomes. He has lectured nationally and internationally on several topics in his specialty and has published multiple peer-reviewed articles and abstracts.
