Dentinal hypersensitivity (DH) is a common dental condition that affects a large majority of the population and despite extensive investigation, this disorder remains underdiagnosed, underreported, and undertreated. Dentinal hypersensitivity impacts quality of life and emotional well-being Patients experiencing DH can also suffer from physical and psychological problems. Clinical management of dentinal hypersensitivity is possible.
Join Dr. Ken Malament as he shares his research and clinical protocols of lithium disilicate. Over the past 17 years, Dr. Malament has closely monitored and studied over 3,300 of these restorations and has experienced a 98% success rate. See why this material performs so well. In this CE webinar, learn how he case plans and uses a regimented routine to achieve durable and long lasting smiles for his patients.
It would be difficult to find another technique in dentistry that has as much evidence as sealants to prevent and arrest dental caries. But is placing a sealant an ultra-simple procedure that doesn’t require much skill or precision? If your sealants seem more like custom fitted plaque traps than highly effective decay prevention, don’t miss this opportunity to re-think your sealing materials and techniques.
It is important for us to understand that every clinical step counts when it comes to achieving beautiful life like direct composite restorations. Upon completion of this CE webinar, the student will be able to implement the use of ideal isolation techniques, understand the bonding protocols available today, and become familiar with recommended composite build-up techniques.
The purpose of this CE webinar is to provide evidence for the routine use of surgical guides for implant placement and to illustrate the advantages of having those cases be fully restoratively driven. We will discuss a comprehensive strategy to implement this into practice using currently available tools, with an emphasis on speed and efficiency, leading to the possibility of same-appointment planning and surgery. Review of the process will be done step-by-step.

The opportunities for 3D printing, scanning and integration into dental office systems is expanding at an alarming rate. This CE webinar will discuss the practical ways to incorporate 3D technology into the general dental office, and the tremendous potential it has for increasing productivity and profitability. We will explore together the rational, as well as when and how to implement this technology. Topics will include 3D printed study models, surgical guides, in-office aligners and occlusal guards. Particular emphasis will be placed on incorporating a seamless workflow that team members can support.

The post-endodontics restoration of teeth (after RCT) has structural, biological, chemical, and physical considerations. Much of current education, and literature, remains based on ‘traditional’ dental approaches, including cements and metal posts. Today the practitioner is faced with a bewildering array of adhesives, structural support (post alternatives) and chemical combinations – all before we get to the part that the patient is most concerned with: the esthetics of the final restoration. This CE webinar will help practitioners better understand the alternative materials that are available and their limitations; select and use the right materials / chemistries to achieve complete polymerization, even at the most apical end of the prep; and techniques that result in a final build-up virtually free of shrinkage, that prevents bacterial ingress and provides a sound structural base for the most esthetic final restoration. Dr. Fanica and Dr. Enachescu bring years of endodontic therapy and extensive knowledge of materials to help make post-endo restorative treatment straight forward and successful.

The first step in effective instrument reprocessing for dentistry is the cleaning process. If all debris is not removed from the instruments prior to sterilization, instruments and other items will not be sterile and safe for patient treatment. This CE webinar will look at all aspects of instrument cleaning, from instrument cleaning techniques and devices, to selecting the appropriate equipment and solutions and monitoring equipment for efficacy. CDC guidelines for instrument cleaning will be reviewed, and manufacturer’s instructions for use will be discussed.

Vaccines are here – but the pandemic of COVID-19 continues. Are you confused about respiratory protection requirements? Frustrated about the shortage of supplies of masks and respirators? This CE webinar will discuss the protection factors and differences between surgical masks and respirators, and when respirators must be worn. In addition, the webinar will review the requirements of the OSHA Respiratory Protection Standard, and CDC Interim Guidance for Dental settings, which includes proper donning and doffing of PPE, reuse of respirators under the FDA’s EUA when supplies are minimal, medical evaluations and fit testing for respirators and more.
