The ABC’s of Adhesive Bonding and Cementation
Presenter: Dr. Thomas Dudney CE Supporter: Bisco
As adhesives and cements continue to evolve, change, and improve, it becomes more difficult for restorative dentists to keep up with the latest advances. With increasingly higher patient expectations for long term clinical success, it is important that dentists have an understanding of these materials in order to make sound decisions on what to use when and why. This CE webinar will discuss the different generations of adhesives and categories of cements including those with bioactive properties. Clinical cases will be shown to demonstrate the use of these adhesives and cements including the proper protocols that must be followed. ( full description, bio and commercial disclosure )

The Value of Being Seen: Elevating Care for People with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities
Presenter: Jeannette Diaz, RDH, RDHAP, MS, MPH, FADHA CE Supporter: VOCO America
Health inequities persist for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Individuals with developmental disabilities experience poorer oral health and challenges accessing dental care. Historically, the dental curriculum did not require training dental professionals to care for and manage the treatment of persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Providers often report feeling unprepared to care for this population. This CE webinar will evaluate the current barriers to care, identify complex factors contributing to oral health, and equip the dental provider with strategies to improve patient care for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Healthful Living in a Stressed-Out, Anxious World - Part 1
Presenter: Karen Davis, RDH, BSDH CE Supporter: Philips Oral Healthcare
Individuals are experiencing bouts of depression, and/or debilitating anxiety at an alarming rate, and the incidence is rising in the young adult and adolescence population since the pandemic. Chronic stressors and chronic anxiety influence health outcomes of those living with diseases such as CVD, cancer and Type 2 Diabetes. Chronic stress can also have a negative outcome on periodontal health. Lifestyle Medicine comprises four quadrants: Healthy Eating Healthy Weight, Active Living and Emotional Resilience. Discover the possibilities of how healthful living within each of these quadrants can help mitigate chronic stress, depression, anxiety and improve periodontal health. This dynamic CE webinar is divided into Part 1 and Part 2.

Metrics that Matter: Using Prevention Protocols to Drive KPIs and Case Acceptance
Presenter: Alicia Murria, RDH, MS CE Supporter: Centrix
What if preventative care was viewed as a calibrated system that elevated team performance and drove measurable growth? This CE webinar explores how dental teams can use structured prevention tools to align around a shared standard of care, improve patient outcomes, and track the business impact of their hygiene department. Attendees will examine how self-assessments, risk evaluations, and communication tools create consistency across providers, leading to stronger documentation, better case acceptance, and elevated KPIs. The CE webinar will also touch on the impact of prevention on key performance indicators (KPIs), including hygiene production, case acceptance, and patient retention. Whether you’re a hygienist, practice owner, or clinical lead, this course will provide practical strategies to turn prevention into profitability—rooted in individualized patient care. Attendees will leave with actionable strategies to strengthen their role as a prevention specialist by enhancing their skills in early risk-identification, communicating findings effectively, and incorporating streamlined tools while boosting clinical efficiency.

Gone are the days of messing and inaccurate plaster and stone in dental offices. 3D printing not only is far more efficient and cleaner but it is more accurate and far more versatile. Many types of appliances and restorations can be printed in-office simply and quickly. Of course study models and smile design models are also printed easily. This CE webinar will demonstrate protocols and give instruction for the integration of the team. Give your patients the convenience they demand while increasing your bottom line.
This CE webinar, presented by Dr. Karson Carpenter president of Compliance Training Partners, will focus on the top OSHA violations seen over the past 12 months.

Armed with new clinical guidelines based on recent systematic reviews, clinicians must choose between the comfort of what they’ve always done and what can stop and reverse dental caries. It’s time to move from bonding to chemical fusion.
This CE webinar will deal with numerous aspects of comprehensive restorative aesthetic dentistry and efficient patient care in today’s dental practice. We will discuss how to make routine dental procedures such as adhesion and direct resins more predictable and efficient using the latest material technologies. Also discussed will be the indirect restoration protocol including preparation design for the current restorative materials and the use of impression materials vs digital technologies. Insertion protocols will also be addressed to aide the clinician in developing a foolproof method to deliver high quality, long-lasting restorations.
After this CE webinar, you will leave with practical knowledge of managing trauma in the GP practice setting that you can begin incorporating into your practice the very next day. Case reviews, technology, and products will be discussed.
Have you noticed the shift in dentistry? Patients expect their dental care to be easier, delivered in a shorter treatment time, and painless. As clinicians, we understand the benefits of conservative restorative approaches and want to promote them at every opportunity. Given the advancement of early diagnostics, minimal intervention becomes even more paramount using cutting-edge technology. This CE webinar will discuss guiding principles for contemporary adhesive preparations using as little intervention as possible utilizing a new roll-out class of minimally invasive dental burs that provide a major impact. Learn how these burs can navigate a variety of current dental materials and tooth anatomy.
More and more, dental hygienists are expected to select the most accurate CDT procedure codes for the medically necessary treatment they provide to patients. Since the ADA’s Code Maintenance Committee meets yearly, those procedures and their descriptors can either be amended, deleted, or stay the same. The CE webinar will discuss the changes (or not) and additions/deletions which came on January 1, 2025. Some of the new and updated dental procedure codes will include revisions and additions to implant maintenance procedures, long requested by hygienists. In addition, more and more caries management products are being developed and how to know which code is the most appropriate. And what procedure code for desiccation therapy? A total of 10 new codes, 8 revised codes and 2 deleted codes will be presented.
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.
According to the American Cancer Society, almost half a million cases of oral cancer are diagnosed worldwide each year. In the United States alone, there were over 58,000 cases of oral cancer, with over 12,000 deaths in 2024. Unlike other cancers, where the annual rate of the disease is decreasing, the rate of oral cancer is increasing at a rate of about 1% each year. Survivors often experience problems such as facial disfigurement, eating and speaking difficulties, and more. The key to survival and minimizing the effects of surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy is to identify oral cancers at their earliest stages, before it spreads throughout the head and neck region or metastasizes throughout the body.
