This CE webinar explores how shifting from passive monitoring to non-invasive early intervention can transform both patient outcomes and practice performance. As clinicians gain access to advanced diagnostic technologies, the opportunity to identify and treat early enamel lesions—before cavitation—has never been greater. Yet many practices struggle with team alignment, case acceptance, and integrating these protocols into everyday workflows. This webinar outlines a practical, team-centered approach to implementing early intervention strategies that preserve tooth structure through guided hydroxyapatite generation while simultaneously driving measurable production growth. Attendees will learn how to leverage modern detection tools, standardize clinical protocols, and empower the entire dental team—from hygienists to front office—to communicate value effectively and confidently. By connecting clinical excellence with business impact, this course demonstrates how early intervention is not just a treatment philosophy, but a scalable growth strategy. Participants will leave with actionable steps to improve patient trust, increase case acceptance, and create a more proactive, productive practice culture.

Fibre-Reinforced Direct Bridges: New Techniques for Success
Presenter: Dr. Marvin Chacon
Sponsor: VOCO America
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Fibre-reinforced direct bridges (FRDB’s) have shown good performance in clinical applications, capable of overcoming functional masticatory loading with a more biomimetic behavior than rigid metallic or full ceramic prostheses. Its retention relies on adhesive capacity which allows a lower tooth structure removal than conventional alternatives, as minimal or no sound tooth structure preparation is needed on the abutment.







3D Print Your Provisionals for Better Fit, Better Esthetics, and Convenience
Presenter: Dr. Susan McMahon
Sponsor: VOCO America

View Full Description »
Provisional restorations are a vital diagnostic and assessment tool. Function, color, shape, contour, occlusion, periodontal response, implant healing, and overall esthetics can be assessed with a well made provisional restoration. Accurate fit and margins are essential. Many clinicians make their provisionals utilizing bisacryl material and a pre-made stent. Lab made provisionals that are re-lined are also used. Printing your provisionals can save both time and money. Producing esthetic, well fitting, functional provisional restorations can be simply and efficiently done with your in-office 3D printer.

Today, we’re tackling a question every restorative dentist has asked at some point: can one composite really do it all? For decades, we’ve accepted tradeoffs—great polish but limited strength, strong posterior composites with compromised esthetics. But composite technology has come a long way. According to our guest, Dr Susan McMahon, we’ve reached a point where a single universal composite can handle virtually every direct restorative case—and on top of that deliver stellar results. So if you’re looking to simplify your restorative workflow without compromising outcomes, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

One of the most valuable steps a new dentist can take is finding a mentor—someone who’s been in the field for 25 years or more and has learned through experience, including their own mistakes. A mentor offers the chance to see what lies ahead, helping you avoid getting caught up in the moment and make well-thought-out decisions about the kind of practice you want to build and the investments you’ll need to make. Today, we’re sitting down with Dr. Chris Pescatore, a general dentist with over 30 years of experience. He has been a pioneer in digital dentistry since the early ’90s and has seen it all when it comes to creating aesthetic restorations. As you listen to Dr. Pescatore’s insights, we hope you gain invaluable advice to help guide you as you embark on your own dental career.
