This CE webinar is designed to provide clinicians with practical, experience-based guidance for achieving predictable and esthetic posterior composite restorations. Drawing from over 25 years of clinical practice, the lecture will highlight best practices that enhance efficiency, accuracy, and long-term success. Participants will gain insight into the essential tools and materials required for optimal outcomes, as well as how to avoid common and preventable diagnostic errors that can compromise treatment. The webinar will also focus on decision-making strategies for selecting the appropriate composite materials based on tooth location and functional demands. Attendees will learn proper tooth preparation techniques for esthetic restorations and will be introduced to streamlined methods and instrumentation that allow for faster, easier procedures while maintaining a natural appearance. Clinical video demonstrations of Class II and Class V composite restorations will further reinforce these concepts and provide real-world application.

In this CE webinar, Dr. Tony Mennito will explore all the elements that go into making beautiful and long lasting composite resin restorations. Picture this; a patient walks into your office with worn, broken down teeth. They want to feel that confidence that comes with a great smile. Composite resin can be a great, cost-effective material to help patients get their smile back. In this webinar Dr. Mennito will show you how you can utilize tools like dental photography, direct mock ups, and modern dental materials to win the confidence of your patients and deliver the highest esthetic outcomes.

Improving dental practice profitability rarely comes down to a single piece of equipment. It depends on how well the systems in a practice work together, from reliable utility equipment to efficient operatories and tools that stay in service. In most practices, profitability is closely tied to four operational factors: equipment uptime, operatory efficiency, maintenance speed, and equipment longevity.
Upon completion of this CE webinar, the student will be better positioned to maintain consistent patient flow and protect their production schedules.

Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) and the Sickle Cell Trait (SCT) extend beyond hematologic impact. This disease is responsible for a lot of hidden systemic conditions that influence oral tissue, dental development, and secondary infections that could result in a vaso-occlusive crises. This CE webinar will explore the connections between SCD/SCT and dental pathology. We will also cover chronic hypoxia, inflammation, vascular compromise, and their effects on the dentition. Participates will learn oral indicators of systemic disease, dental management strategies, and evidence based approaches using VOCO dental products.

New materials, technology and techniques are developing at such a rapid pace that practitioners can become overwhelmed. Add to this the increased expectations of esthetic patients and the clinical performance of materials and the entire experience can be challenging. This CE webinar will explore the recent trends in composite restorative materials with an emphasis on demystifying the concept of chameleon technology. Dr. Geissberger will describe significant changes that have occurred over the last few years enabling clinicians to place few layers, limit inventory, and establish life-like restorations.

The most used materials in today’s general practice are burs, bonding agents, and composites for direct restorations. The evolution of this group of materials, in particular, is amazing. Today’s light cure resins are light years ahead of the materials that we thought were great 20 years ago. The evolution of materials includes base or lining materials when the proximity to the pulp requires some form of pulpal protection. Calcium has been proven to be a critical adjunct to the armamentarium of all general dentists performing routine decay excavation and tooth restoration. This CE webinar is designed for the busy dentist who wants to stay current with the available materials and concepts of efficient placement of tooth-colored restorations. We will discuss what matters most in pulpal protection material selection, depending upon location and occlusal load put on the restoration. Reduction and elimination of post-operative sensitivity will be addressed.
Direct resin posterior restorations can be challenging to blend with the surrounding tooth structure for several reasons ranging from discoloration of underlying tooth structure that can result when replacing an old amalgam that stained the dentin, teeth discolored due to tetracycline or other things related to when the tooth developed, tooth shades that do not fit standard Vita shades, to enamel and dentin that varies in shade on the tooth. Luckily, advances in restorative composite materials have allowed development of single shade resin materials for direct restorations, offering a simpler process using fewer materials to achieve excellent aesthetics that blends with the surrounding tooth. In this CE webinar, the benefits of using a universal shade composite to simplify direct resin restorations for use for Class I and II restorations, Class V restorations and core buildups will be discussed.
Join Dr. Matt Nejad in this one-hour CE webinar as he explores the transformative impact of Digital and CAD/CAM technology in biomimetic dentistry. This webinar will delve into the significant advantages that digital dentistry and CAD/CAM offer, particularly in achieving precise, predictable, and natural-looking restorations that mimic natural tooth structure. Participants will gain insight into the latest recommended materials and their applications, streamlined workflows for enhanced practice efficiency, and practical tips on integrating these technologies into daily dental practice. The webinar will feature case presentations that highlight innovative approaches and improvements in restorative workflows. Whether you are looking to refine your skills or integrate new techniques, this webinar will provide valuable knowledge and practical solutions for going digital with advancing your biomimetic dentistry.

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.
