Mastering the complexities of periodontal disease requires a seamless bridge between diagnostic precision and patient-centered execution. This case-based CE webinar is designed to demystify the AAP Periodontal Classification System, transforming it from a diagnostic checklist into a powerful framework for clinical decision-making. Participants will engage in the practical application of staging and grading, learning how to translate clinical findings directly into highly customized, evidence-based treatment plans. Beyond the probe depths, we will explore the latest modalities in non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT), advanced biofilm management strategies, and the science behind individualized homecare recommendations. Through guided, interactive case walkthroughs, you will apply these concepts to real-world clinical scenarios, sharpening your diagnostic ability and treatment confidence. Finally, because the best treatment plan only works if the patient partners with you, the course concludes with actionable Motivational Interviewing (MI) techniques. You will leave equipped to elevate your patient communication, break down barriers to treatment acceptance, and inspire long-term homecare compliance.


Creating a Culture of Safe Dental Water: Evidence-based Strategies for Compliance and Patient Safety

Dental unit waterlines remain one of the most overlooked infection prevention challenges in dentistry. While biofilm forms naturally in every dental waterline system, inadequate waterline management can compromise patient safety, increase regulatory risk, and expose practices to unnecessary liability. Presented by the President of the Georgia Board of Dentistry, who championed the development of Georgia’s Dental Unit Waterline Rule, this CE webinar provides practical, evidence-based guidance for building a comprehensive waterline management program that supports long-term compliance and consistent clinical outcomes. Participants will gain insight into emerging regulatory expectations, proven strategies for sustainable waterline safety, and the key elements of a successful program that protects patients while reducing risk. Whether building a new program or strengthening an existing one, attendees will leave with practical insights to help create a lasting culture of safe dental water.


New Materials and Technologies Along with Fusion of Digital and Analog Workflows Can Enhance Your Restorative Practice

Improvement in materials and technologies make it possible for all dentists to expand on direct restorative services they provide for their patients and improve indirect restorative workflows for difficult aesthetic cases. This CE webinar will discuss the fusion of digital and analog workflows to enhance predictability and patient satisfaction. Step-by-step case review will highlight the individual procedural elements to improve aesthetic and functional outcomes of your most challenging cases.


From Anterior to Posterior: A Prescriptive, Team-Based Isolation Protocol for Pediatric and Teen Patients
Presenter: Dr. Joshua Solomon
Sponsor: Zyris, creators of Isolite
Mon  9/28/26    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT

CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU
This one-hour CE webinar presents a comprehensive approach to isolation in the pediatric and adolescent patient across restorative, preventive, and hygiene procedures. The webinar begins with rubber dam fundamentals and the clinical situations in which the dam remains the standard of care. It then examines hands-free isolation systems in depth, addressing intraoral mouthpiece selection for primary and transitional dentition, anterior applications where adequate isolation is most difficult to achieve, posterior quadrant dentistry, and the setup modifications required to accommodate varying levels of patient cooperation. The course also addresses the combined use of isolation and air polishing for the efficient removal of stain, plaque, and calculus — an approach of particular value in orthodontic patients, for whom conventional prophylaxis is both time-consuming and incomplete. Emphasis is placed throughout on defined team roles, as the consistency and quality of isolation depend as much on the assistant and hygienist as on the treating dentist. Participants will leave with a clear division of responsibility for who places, verifies, and manages isolation in the operatory.

Precision and Permanence: The Complete Workflow for Lasting Restorations
Presenter: Dr. Dimple Desai
Sponsor: Bisco
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
This CE webinar explores step by step planning and workflow designed to maximize the longevity of indirect cosmetic restorations. From diagnosis to photography communication with the ceramist, as well as, isolation, bonding protocols to the final delivery, each phase plays a crucial role in creating restorations that stand the test of time. Learn how to integrate clinical precision with modern techniques to endure predicable and durable outcomes for the patient.







Beyond the Gums: Airway, Inflammation, and Periodontal Disease - Part 1
Presenter: LD Coaching
Sponsor: VOCO America
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Periodontal disease is no longer understood as a condition driven by biofilm alone. Emerging evidence continues to highlight the role of airway dysfunction, altered breathing patterns, and chronic inflammation as contributing risk factors to periodontal breakdown. This two-part CE webinar series explores the airway-inflammation-periodontal connection through a prevention-focused, hygiene-centered lens. Participants will learn how mouth breathing and sleep-disordered breathing influence the oral microbiome, salivary function, and inflammatory burden, and how these changes present clinically during routine hygiene visits. Dental hygienists will gain practical tools for recognizing airway-related red flags, implementing simple screening strategies within their scope, communicating findings confidently with patients, and integrating prevention-based periodontal care models that support long-term stability.







Dental Photography in Your Practice: Enhancing Documentation, Communication, Marketing and Clinical Outcome
Presenter: Dr. Devin McClintock
Sponsor: Bisco
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)

Guest: Dr. Luis Abrahante
On today’s episode, we’re talking with an inspiring young dentist whose story is nothing short of amazing. Meet Dr. Luis Abrahante—he came to the U.S. from Cuba at just 18 years old, not knowing a word of English. Fast forward to age 31, and he’s already paid off his dental school loans, bought his own practice, and turned it into a fully digital, high-end aesthetic dentistry hub. He shares with us how he did it along with his favorite dental materials.

Guest: Dr. Susan McMahon
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.

Guest: Dr. Kelly Tanner, PhD, RDH
What does it mean for dental hygienists to take charge of the operatory? Traditionally seen as supporting roles, hygienists have focused on cleaning teeth and patient education. But our guest today believes they can do much more—enhancing case acceptance, improving clinical outcomes, and elevating overall patient care. Her mission is to empower hygienists to lead, take ownership of their role, and contribute beyond their clinical duties. Dr. Kelly Tanner is a reg dental hygienist who holds a Ph.D. in Business and Leadership. Her website is nextleveldentalhygiene.com.
