Beyond Shape: Characterization and Texture in Direct Composite Veneers Presenter: Dr. Drew Ballard Sponsor: Tokuyama Dental America Mon  10/12/26    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT Mon  10/12/26    11:00 PM UTC CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU Reserve Your Seat Now top

Creating a beautiful direct composite veneer is about more than achieving the right shape and shade. The details that ultimately make a restoration feel natural are often found in the final stages: surface texture, characterization, anatomy, light reflection, and the subtle imperfections that allow the dentistry to blend seamlessly with the surrounding dentition. In this CE webinar, Dr. Drew Ballard will share his approach to characterization and texture in direct composite resin veneers, demonstrating how he takes a restoration from simply well-shaped to natural and lifelike.

Maximizing Dental Suction and Safety: A New Approach to Amalgam Separation Presenter: Dr. Marie Fluent Sponsor: Air Techniques Tue  10/13/26    8:30 PM ET    5:30 PM PT Wed  10/14/26    0:30 AM UTC CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU Reserve Your Seat Now top

This one-hour CE webinar introduces a revolutionary, filter-free amalgam separation system designed to operate independently of your central vacuum. Participants will explore how bypassing the central vacuum optimizes aerosol capture and maintains peak suction performance without clogging from prophylaxis paste. The webinar highlights critical infection control advantages, including the reduction of saliva, blood, and contaminated aerosols at the clinical site, and enhances operator visualization and patient comfort. Additionally, attendees will learn how this technology lowers amalgam recycling costs and prevents toxic waste from entering municipal water systems and supports environmental sustainability.

Highly Esthetic Tooth and Implant-supported Restorations: An Update on the Latest Materials, Workflows, and Techniques for 2026 Presenter: Dr. Julian Conejo Sponsor: Kuraray Noritake Thu  10/15/26    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT Thu  10/15/26    11:00 PM UTC CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU Reserve Your Seat Now top

A step by step digital workflow to improve success rates on single and multiple-unit tooth and implant restorations will be presented. The main objective of this CE webinar is to show how treatment time optimization and better clinical outcomes are possible with the implementation of digital tools. This webinar will show how to collect patient’s initial data to create the “Digital Clone”, discussing key points from photography setups to intraoral scanning tips and tricks for better communication with the dental laboratory. Design and fabrication of highly esthetic provisional and definitive restorations with 3D printed and milled material options will be explained to improve clinical efficiency on tooth and implant-supported restorations.

Biofilm Management in Modern Periodontal and Peri-Implant Therapy Presenter: Dr. Andrea Ravidà Sponsor: EMS Dental Mon  10/19/26    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT Mon  10/19/26    11:00 PM UTC CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU Reserve Your Seat Now top

Modern periodontal and peri-implant therapy is increasingly guided by biologically driven, minimally invasive principles aimed at effective biofilm disruption while preserving hard and soft tissues. The integration of piezoelectric instrumentation and air-polishing technologies allows clinicians to tailor biofilm management strategies according to the specific clinical indication. This CE webinar will describe the application of thin piezoelectric instrumentation for minimally invasive non-surgical periodontal therapy. The role of subgingival air polishing in the management of peri-implant mucositis will be discussed, with an emphasis on effective biofilm disruption while preserving implant surface integrity. In more advanced peri-implant disease, supra- and submucosal air-polishing approaches will be illustrated as part of a structured therapeutic protocol. Through clinical cases and protocol-based workflows, the webinar will demonstrate how the appropriate selection and integration of these technologies, guided by biological rationale and disease severity, can enhance precision, tissue preservation, and long-term periodontal and peri-implant stability.

Restorative Dentistry: Products, Innovations, Strategies, and Concepts that Make Fillings More Fulfilling Presenter: Dr. Ankur Gupta Sponsor: VOCO America CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study) View Full Description »

While most dentists consider fillings a major part of their bread and butter practice repertoire, most would agree that they are not enjoyable. voids, overhangs, post-op sensitivity, marginal leakage and stain, all combine to make fillings stressful, annoying, and difficult. In this highly relatable and pragmatic one hour CE webinar, Dr. Gupta shares simple products, procedural tweaks, and innovative strategy that make this part of dentistry more satisfying.

Pushing the Envelope: Direct and Indirect Posterior Solutions with Composite Presenter: Dr. Lauren Rainey and Dr. Mauricio Watanabe Sponsor: VOCO America CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study) View Full Description »

The science and technology built into dental composite resins is impressive, but rarely do practitioners (or patients) realize how versatile our materials really can be. Direct placement is the most common approach for composite, but by relying on the material science within, predictable indirect composite restorations can also be life-like, strong and long lasting. Join the co-presenters in this CE webinar as they review cases from North and South America as they compare and contrast uses of composite resin in their daily practice.
