Porcelain veneer cementation is one of the most technique-sensitive stages of aesthetic treatment. In this one-hour CE webinar, Dr. Jason Olitsky presents a practical, step-by-step approach to delivering veneer cases with greater confidence and predictability. The webinar will review the critical stages of veneer try-in and cementation, including provisional removal, bleeding control, isolation, color evaluation, porcelain preparation, seating, cement cleanup, finishing, and occlusal adjustment. Real-world challenges such as show-through, tight contacts, incomplete seating, poor fit, exposed margins, and open gingival embrasures will also be discussed. Participants will leave with practical strategies they can immediately apply to simplify veneer delivery and improve aesthetic outcomes.

What makes some composite veneers maintain their brilliance for years while others discolor prematurely? In this CE webinar, join Dr. Andrew Ballard for a science-driven exploration of the factors influencing long-term color stability in direct resin veneers. This webinar examines the relationship between polymer chemistry, degree of conversion, curing light performance, oxygen-inhibited layers, and composite filler particle size. Special attention will be given to finishing and polishing protocols and how surface texture and material selection influence staining, gloss retention, and restoration longevity. Discover practical, evidence-based strategies to minimize discoloration and create beautiful, durable composite veneers that stand the test of time.

Successful direct restorations require more than selecting a composite and placing it into a preparation. Long-term clinical success is dependent upon understanding the complex relationship between adhesive systems, restorative materials, and light-curing technology. Advances in universal adhesives, bulk-fill and nanohybrid composites, antimicrobial restorative materials, and high-output LED curing lights have provided clinicians with powerful tools to improve efficiency and predictability. However, improper material selection or curing protocols can compromise polymerization, bond durability, marginal integrity, esthetics, and restoration longevity.
This evidence-based CE webinar reviews the science behind contemporary adhesive dentistry and composite placement while providing practical clinical protocols that can be immediately implemented in everyday practice. Through clinical cases, current research, and real-world restorative workflows, participants will learn how to maximize restorative performance by optimizing the interaction between adhesives, composites, and curing lights.

Successful endodontic treatment begins long before canal instrumentation. Managing structurally compromised teeth requires careful restorative planning before root canal treatment begins. This CE webinar will present a practical, evidence-based approach to pre-endodontic restoration, focusing on adhesive strategies, isolation, sealing, and management of the remaining tooth structure to improve treatment predictability and long-term outcomes, illustrated with clinical cases.

It seems so easy doesn’t it? Yet most people struggle with one or more aspects of direct composites. In this CE webinar, join us as we break down the common areas that we struggle with and explain simple solutions to those problems.
Risk assessments are the cornerstone of dental caries management, but there’s more to the process than filling out a form. If you feel stuck to a questionnaire, this presentation will help get you “off the page” and into a deeper conversation that changes behavior.
Composite dentistry has come a long way - from macrofills to nanofills to today’s nanohybrids and universal systems that aim to combine strength, esthetics, and efficiency. In this CE webinar, Dr. Luis Abrahante, DMD, shares his clinical perspective on the evolution of restorative materials and how they’ve shaped the modern restorative workflow. Attendees will explore foundational concepts such as C-Factor, shrinkage stress, and how advancements in filler technology and resin matrix design are influencing both technique and long-term outcomes.
This webinar will provide a practical, high-yield breakdown of what clinicians should consider when selecting a universal composite - from handling to polish retention to marginal integrity - and how newer materials are helping streamline procedures while elevating results. Whether layering an anterior case or restoring a posterior load-bearing tooth, you'll gain strategies that are grounded in everyday dentistry and adaptable across different case types.

Dr. Miles Cone is a prosthodontist who shares how bringing a 3D printer into his practice has completely transformed the way he works—making things more efficient, productive, and yes, even more profitable. He talks about how this technology has opened the door to doing things differently, from quickly fabricating models and occlusal guards to whitening trays and provisionals—all in-house, and often the same day. He’ll also share what to look for when choosing a printer, and reveal his personal favorite and why. According to Dr. Cone, 3D printing isn’t just the future—it’s a total game-changer in how we practice dentistry today.

For decades, the prevailing orthodoxy in dentistry was that composite restorations should always be placed in 2 mm increments. But advances in materials science have challenged that long-standing belief. Today, we'll explore what those advances mean in everyday clinical practice, along with other key considerations for direct composite restorations—including handling characteristics, radiopacity, adhesion, and practical tips for composite injection molding. If you're a general dentist who enjoys restoring teeth with composite, you're going to appreciate today's guest, Dr. Foroud Hakim. He shares insights drawn from more than 30 years in private practice and working with residents the University of the Pacific School of Dentistry. He also offers some thoughtful advice for new graduates, emphasizing that investing in high-quality continuing education immediately after dental school is one of the best ways to accelerate your clinical skills and confidence.
