The Mental Dental Connection: The Secret to Being a Better Clinician and Leader
Presenter: Dr. Joshua Austin
Sponsor: VOCO America

Anxiety, pain, depression, burnout. Dentistry can be difficult and take a toll. Studies show us that dental professionals experience a high incidence of mental illness. Additionally, many dental professionals don’t clearly understand the mental health conditions that our patients present with, which red flags to watch for, or what to do/how to intervene. Presented in Dr. Joshua Austin’s trademark comedic style, this CE webinar explores strategies for working together to improve mental health so we can be our best. Learn how to recognize triggers and warning signs. Identify essential tools and resources. Discover how and when to refer to a mental health professional. Explore and understand mental health terms, common treatments and therapy options. Gain coping mechanisms and learn how to manage expectations – both our own and those of our patients. Dental professionals often examine the physical aspects of wellness yet we rarely explore or discuss the mental aspects. It is time to remove the taboo and face the facts.

Bonding for Cosmetic Success
Presenter: Dr. Devin McClintock
Sponsor: Bisco
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Advancements in technology and materials have shifted the field of dentistry. As a result, providers opt for more conservative restorative options for enhanced smile esthetics. Additive and minimally invasive restorations rely on chemical adhesion over mechanical retention with both their direct and indirect restorations. The road to reliability in adhesive dentistry is paved through consistency and reliance on adhering to science. Developing systems and protocols and sticking to them ensures long term stability with cosmetic restorations, which in turn results in happy patients with reliable outcomes. But how does one develop the proper systems and protocols? In this CE webinar, providers will learn how to simplify yet optimize their isolation techniques and bonding protocols to achieve more predictable long-term success with both their direct and indirect restorative outcomes.

In this episode, we'll be talking to a dentist who is well aware that Zr wins the strength contest but he has plenty of reasons to stay the course with LiSi. He specifically prefers a specific Lithium Disilicate bloc that saves him the step of firing after chairside milling. To tell us all about it is Dr. Yao-Lin Tang, who has over twenty years of practical knowledge in cosmetic and general dentistry. He is a CEREC user since 2005, a certified CEREC trainer, and a Visiting Faculty at CDOCS.com.
