Chairside Challenges, Lifelong Smiles: Dental Care for the Aging Adult Presenter: Sonya Dunbar, RDH Sponsor: VOCO America Tue  4/14/26    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT Tue  4/14/26    11:00 PM UTC CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU Reserve Your Seat Now top

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 to Balance: A Practical Guide for Dental Professionals Presenter: Cheryl Calmis, RDH, BS, M.Ed Sponsor: Microcopy Thu  4/16/26    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT Thu  4/16/26    11:00 PM UTC CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU Reserve Your Seat Now top

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.

The Screening That Saves Lives: Oral Cancer and the Dental Team Presenter: Dr. Ashley Clark Sponsor: Pierrel S.p.A. Mon  4/20/26    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT Mon  4/20/26    11:00 PM UTC CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU Reserve Your Seat Now top

This CE webinar will provide oral health care providers with information regarding oral cancer. Potentially malignant conditions, particularly leukoplakia, will be discussed. Prevention of the disease is primarily the job of oral health care professionals; therefore, a focus will be made on preventing oral squamous cell carcinoma.

Bonding to Primary Teeth: Why It’s Harder and How to Make It Work Presenter: Dr. Ryan Cormack Sponsor: Bisco Thu  4/23/26    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT Thu  4/23/26    11:00 PM UTC CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU Reserve Your Seat Now top

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.

The Top Ergonomic Mistakes in Dentistry and How to Fix Them Presenter: Stephanie Botts, RDH, BSDH, CEAS Sponsor: Midmark Dental Tue  4/28/26    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT Tue  4/28/26    11:00 PM UTC CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU Reserve Your Seat Now top

Musculoskeletal pain is nearly universal in dentistry but it doesn’t have to be. In this CE webinar, we’ll break down the top ergonomic mistakes dental clinicians make every day, including forward head posture, shoulder strain, twisting, reaching, and poor patient positioning. During this CE webinar, you’ll learn how operatory layout and equipment design can either contribute to these patterns or dramatically reduce them. Through real clinical examples, we’ll explore how proper chair positioning, delivery setup, lighting alignment, and movement strategies can support neutral posture and long-term career longevity.

Fibre-Reinforced Direct Bridges: New Techniques for Success Presenter: Dr. Marvin Chacon Sponsor: VOCO America CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study) View Full Description »

Fibre-reinforced direct bridges (FRDB’s) have shown good performance in clinical applications, capable of overcoming functional masticatory loading with a more biomimetic behavior than rigid metallic or full ceramic prostheses. Its retention relies on adhesive capacity which allows a lower tooth structure removal than conventional alternatives, as minimal or no sound tooth structure preparation is needed on the abutment.
