What Does Science Tell Us About Fluoride Varnish? Reserve Seat Presenter: Shelley Brown, MEd, BSDH, AS, RDH, FADHA CE Supporter: Centrix Mon  8/24/26    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT Mon  8/24/26    11:00 PM UTC CE Credits: 1 Live, Interactive CEU top

We are all familiar with fluoride varnish but in today’s environment of fluoride hesitancy, misinformation, and marketing noise, it’s easy to lose sight of the science that makes it so effective. To continue delivering the highest standard of preventive care, clinicians need a clear understanding of what actually happens after varnish is applied and why those mechanisms matter clinically. This CE webinar takes a closer look at the science behind fluoride varnish, including fluoride uptake, fluorapatite formation, and the role prolonged contact time plays in long-term enamel protection. We’ll also explore how varnish formulations behave on the tooth surface and what clinicians should consider when selecting a varnish for their patients.

Want to learn about "permanent lifestyle change" and quench your patients' flames & their disease risk? There is an avalanche of evidence demonstrating the connection between your patients' mouths with their modern lifestyle habits: lack of sleep (saps their discipline), shift work (after 4 night-shifts blood sugar is elevated), poorly managed stress (shows up in every cell of their body), overeating (high fat & processed food boosts inflammation), and sedentary living (did you know "Sitting is the New Smoking?"). And it's bi-directional; the oral environment has far reaching effects on the rest of the body. Patients appreciate the dental health professional who sees the bigger picture in the body, mind and mouth and see its interconnectedness. Stop the fiery cascade with specific dental & lifestyle solutions guaranteed to change your patients' health destiny. This fact filled and inspirational CE webinar is a "call to arms" against "hot spots" of inflammation - "let's douse the flames!"
