Composite dentistry has evolved and yet many clinicians still struggle with consistency, efficiency, and long-term outcomes. This CE webinar breaks down a universal composite workflow that simplifies material selection, maintains esthetics, and increases predictability across everyday restorative cases. Designed for real-world dentistry, this course focuses on practical techniques for posterior and anterior restorations, shade simplification, handling characteristics, layering strategies, and polishing protocols that elevate results without adding complexity or chair time. Attendees will leave with immediately applicable techniques to improve restoration longevity, patient satisfaction, and clinical confidence.

This CE webinar explores how shifting from passive monitoring to non-invasive early intervention can transform both patient outcomes and practice performance. As clinicians gain access to advanced diagnostic technologies, the opportunity to identify and treat early enamel lesions—before cavitation—has never been greater. Yet many practices struggle with team alignment, case acceptance, and integrating these protocols into everyday workflows.
This webinar outlines a practical, team-centered approach to implementing early intervention strategies that preserve tooth structure through guided hydroxyapatite generation while simultaneously driving measurable production growth. Attendees will learn how to leverage modern detection tools, standardize clinical protocols, and empower the entire dental team—from hygienists to front office—to communicate value effectively and confidently.
By connecting clinical excellence with business impact, this course demonstrates how early intervention is not just a treatment philosophy, but a scalable growth strategy. Participants will leave with actionable steps to improve patient trust, increase case acceptance, and create a more proactive, productive practice culture.

Early intervention for tethered oral tissues (TOTs) can play a significant role in improving a child’s overall health and development. In this CE webinar, Dr. Jared Poplin will examine common conditions associated with tongue-ties and lip-ties, including challenges with breastfeeding, speech development, and oral health. The webinar will also highlight how the 9.3-micron CO2 all-tissue laser supports precise, efficient frenectomy procedures with minimal bleeding, reduced post-operative discomfort, and remarkably rapid healing.

This CE webinar explores the diagnosis and minimally invasive management of smooth surface enamel defects, integrating both contemporary diagnostic tools and conservative therapeutic strategies. It addresses the different types of enamel lesions based on their topography and etiology—ranging from initial carious demineralizations to developmental defects such as hypoplasia, fluorosis, and hypomineralization—highlighting how these variations influence clinical decision-making. A key concept discussed is the optical nature of white spot lesions. Early enamel demineralization creates subsurface porosities without surface cavitation, leading to light scattering and the characteristic opaque appearance. These lesions are not due to pigmentation but rather to changes in light diffraction within the enamel structure. The webinar also covers advanced diagnostic approaches, including the benefits of transillumination to better assess lesion depth and extension, improving accuracy in treatment indication. Pre-treatment considerations such as bleaching are presented as a way to harmonize the overall tooth shade and enhance the final esthetic outcome. Central to the discussion is the principle of erosion-infiltration, initially developed for early proximal carious lesions but now widely extended to smooth surface defects. The technique relies on modifying the enamel’s optical properties by infiltrating its porosities with a low-viscosity resin whose refractive index closely matches that of healthy enamel, allowing light to pass through more uniformly and restoring translucency.

Indirect restorative dentistry involves many details that can significantly affect the final outcome, with preparation and temporization often being overlooked. In this CE webinar, we will cover how to properly fabricate ideal crowns, bridges, and veneers using advanced provisional materials, while also addressing the critical role of temporary cements. We’ll discuss how cement selection impacts retention, sensitivity, marginal seal, and esthetics, and provide guidance on choosing the right cement for different clinical situations to ensure predictable, successful results.
There is a concept in dentistry that somehow adhesion is better and yet we see amalgams and crowns, held on by zinc phosphate cement, are still working in patients mouths 40+ years later but we see failure rates and replacements of various adhesive dentistry in 5-10 years. Where techniques use to be more simplistic with less steps and basic fundamentals we achieved success, and now we throw out many of those concepts and replace them with adhesion, we expect to find longevity. Are you seeing longevity or are you seeing more sensitivity, problems, failures or costly redos? This CE webinar is a look at where we are at with modern adhesion and what we believe we know. The goal is to give you some systems, tools and thoughts to consider to help you and your patients to have better longevity and success in the restorative dentistry you provide.
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.

Dental practices that open their doors to patients with developmental disabilities not only are rewarded with immense fulfillment in their work, but also a rapid expansion of their patient base through the powerful network of word-of-mouth marketing. They end up treating the entire family of the patient with the disability as well as their friends, relatives, and so forth. It is a fantastic way to grow your practice. To tell us more about helping patients with developmental disabilities get access to good dental care is our guest Jeanette Diaz. Jeanette is an educator, public speaker, and independent dental hygienist in California. She owns and operates a portable dental hygiene practice serving older adults and individuals with developmental disabilities. Jeannette currently works for the California Department of Developmental Services and teaches graduate and undergraduate studies.
