Comprehensive and accurate diagnosis is the key for for every successful practice. It ensures patient trust and strengthens the doctor patient relationship. In this CE webinar, join us as we discuss the true definition of diagnostics and some state of the art technology that assures an accurate and complete diagnosis.
Dental professionals have increased risk of exposure to dental aerosols and droplets. These are caused by the rebound of spray mist on the tooth surface generated by dental instruments (e.g. turbine and powder water jet devices).
In this CE webinar, Dr. Martin Koch will give an insight into the latest research and present initial results of a study that is being conducted.
Water is a vital component of modern dentistry and water quality affects nearly every function of dental offices. Dental units supply water for most every dental procedure from routine prophies to complex restorative procedures. This CE webinar will discuss the importance of using clean and safe water, guidelines and regulations for water quality, and how to ensure continuous delivery of safe water during dental care in the era of COVID and beyond.
It has been nearly twenty five years since digital dental radiography was first introduced in North America. Today, it is a rapidly growing diagnostic tool that has become quite popular with the dental staff, doctor, and patient. What continues to remain primary, is the radiographic systems ability to provide accurate and comprehensive diagnostic information. This CE webinar will explore the different modalities used to obtain this critical information, and offer a solution as to how they can be incorporated into a modern dental practice.
