CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Bioactive has become a buzz word in dentistry, however, many of us struggle to define exactly what that term means. This CE webinar will present the bioactive claims of bioactive restorative materials as well as the evidence for these claims. Clinical examples of the use of these materials will be presented.







Bioactivity in Everyday Practice
Presenter: Dr. Brittany Bergeron
CE Supporter: Pulpdent
Release Date: 9/26/22
Expiration Date: 9/26/25
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Historically, dental materials have been designed to be passive. They are considered successful if they do not interact with or harm the surrounding tissue. Thus, these materials are deemed to be biocompatible. In recent years, with the development of bioactive materials with impressive capabilities, this has started to change. A shift in thinking and a desire to do better for our patients has given rise to the era of bioactive dental materials. Bioactive materials are by design, interactive with a patient’s tooth structure and help to stimulate and mimic the remineralization process that takes place in nature. This CE webinar will review the science behind bioactive dental materials as well as practical uses for bioactive dental materials in everyday practice.







Are Your Patients “Out of Balance”?
Presenter: Dr. John Comisi
CE Supporter: Pulpdent
Release Date: 8/1/22
Expiration Date: 8/1/25
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Life has become more stressful and challenging, especially during the pandemic. When we find time to care for ourselves, we don’t always make optimal decisions. This includes important choices related to diet, nutrition, and oral health. Yet, each time we eat, the balance of the oral cavity can shift, allowing opportunistic pathogens to become activated and destructive. The result is an oral environment that is “out of balance.” How can we as dental professionals respond to these circumstances and stop this disease process? Fortunately, there are specific and highly effective oral health strategies that you can use to restore balance. In this webinar, Dr. John Comisi will help you understand the disease process and how to end the frustrating treatment cycle of “one step forward, two steps back.” He will also look at beneficial procedures and materials we can we use to arrest this disease process—and possibly even reverse it.







Medical-Dental Integration: Claim Your Seat at the Healthcare Table
Presenter: Crystal Spring, BS, RDH, LAP
CE Supporter: Pulpdent
Release Date: 7/25/22
Expiration Date: 7/25/25
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)

The integration of medicine and dentistry is an exciting development in modern healthcare. While medical-dental integration was once a dream among healthcare visionaries, it is now a tangible reality. This is due in large part to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has accelerated change and made many Americans aware of the oral-systemic link for the first time. In this educational CE webinar, Crystal Spring, RDH, an expert in access-to-care issues, will look at how dental professionals can be a part of this historical medical-dental transition.







KISS It (Keep It Scientific and Simple) – Sugar and Oral Health
Presenter: Dr. Joy Void-Holmes, RDH, BSDH, DHSc
CE Supporter: Pulpdent
Release Date: 6/28/22
Expiration Date: 6/28/25
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
A dynamic and synergistic relationship exists between oral health and nutrition. A diet consisting of frequent consumption of sugar and fermentable carbohydrates is associated with caries disease, periodontal disease, and other dental problems. While it is common knowledge that too much sugar can lead to poor oral health, the mechanism of action behind this process is often misunderstood. In this CE webinar, attendees will learn how sugar is hydrolyzed in the oral cavity and contributes to poor oral health in the presence of malnutrition in a scientific yet simple manner.

The Booming Geriatric Population: Guess What, They Have Teeth!
Presenter: Dr. Lou Graham
CE Supporter: Pulpdent
Release Date: 11/18/21
Expiration Date: 11/18/24
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
In just two generations, life expectancies have increased 20 years. With that, you as a clinician are now faced with far more dentulous dentistry in the older population subset. These patients provide wonderful opportunities for you to help, as they present with daily restorative challenges that are entirely different than those of younger patients. Why? Because aging oral issues are, in fact, the perfect recipe for geriatric caries. The reasons for this are many, including large embrasures (food traps), aged dental margins, poor diets, decreased saliva, and decreased dexterity for optimal prevention. This CE webinar will present clear approaches for you to treat these patients. It will also highlight the latest restorative materials and techniques to best help in these clinical situations.

The Joy of Sealants
Presenter: Dr. Joy Void-Holmes, RDH, BSDH, DHSc
CE Supporter: Pulpdent
Release Date: 8/23/21
Expiration Date: 8/23/24
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Patients that practice poor eating habits such as consuming sugary foods, fermented carbs, or too many calories, are at a high risk for developing caries. Sealants were introduced to as a preventative measure to reduce caries in young children. While sealants are more commonly recommended for children by dental professionals, they should be considered for any individual with a high caries risk. Over the past decade, dentistry has transitioned from a passive, reactive repair model to an active approach that promotes proactive care. This CE webinar will introduce participants to dynamic, bioactive materials that mimic nature and support and environment favorable of remineralization and promotes the natural healing process in the oral cavity. Participants will also learn about the importance of incorporating calcium and phosphate ions into dental materials.
