Does your daily restorative routine feel hindered by unpredictable outcomes or complex material choices? Nowadays, clinicians have many options for different options when it comes to composite restorations. Materials such as microfills, microhybrids, nanofills, bulkfills, and flowables are getting stronger and more versatile. Universal adhesives offer a level of compatibility that was not available a decade ago. This CE webinar presents an overview of how composite bonding chemistry, restorative materials and composite warming helps maximize the success of composite restorations.

Want to learn about "permanent lifestyle change" and quench your patients' flames & their disease risk? There is an avalanche of evidence demonstrating the connection between your patients' mouths with their modern lifestyle habits: lack of sleep (saps their discipline), shift work (after 4 night-shifts blood sugar is elevated), poorly managed stress (shows up in every cell of their body), overeating (high fat & processed food boosts inflammation), and sedentary living (did you know "Sitting is the New Smoking?"). And it's bi-directional; the oral environment has far reaching effects on the rest of the body. Patients appreciate the dental health professional who sees the bigger picture in the body, mind and mouth and see its interconnectedness. Stop the fiery cascade with specific dental & lifestyle solutions guaranteed to change your patients' health destiny. This fact filled and inspirational CE webinar is a "call to arms" against "hot spots" of inflammation - "let's douse the flames!"


Small Footprint, Big Impact: Same-Day Restorations with Nano-Sized Chairside 3D Printing
Presenter: Dr. Michael Erdos
Sponsor: Shining 3D

The digital restorative workflow has matured to the point where same-visit crowns, inlays, and onlays are now reliable, strong, and easy to implement. A new generation of compact chairside printers brings fast, chairside-friendly printing into a small footprint that fits comfortably next to a curing light in any dental operatory. Paired with an integrated ecosystem - intraoral scanning, AI-driven design, and streamlined print preparation - these systems make it realistic for a GP to scan, design, print, and deliver a definitive restoration in a single appointment. This one-hour CE webinar will walk attendees through the complete chairside digital workflow, from capturing the initial intraoral scan to seating the final restoration. We will review clinical indications best suited for in-office printing - single-unit crowns, inlays, and onlays - and demonstrate how AI-assisted design and intuitive print setup dramatically reduce the traditional learning curve associated with chairside 3D printing. The goal is for every attendee to leave with a clear, practical understanding of how an in-office printer can be integrated into their practice to save chair time, reduce lab dependency, and deliver predictable same-day results.

This CE webinar is designed to provide dental professionals with practical, experience-based guidance for successfully growing and integrating multiple practices while maintaining a health-centered philosophy of care. Drawing from real-world lessons learned through practice mergers and expansion, the webinar will explore strategies for preserving continuity of patient care, strengthening team culture, and sustaining operational efficiency during periods of growth. Participants will gain insight into common challenges associated with practice integration, including communication barriers, workflow disruptions, and team alignment, along with actionable solutions to address them. The webinar will also examine how effective systems and processes can support profitability and efficiency without compromising clinical excellence or patient-centered outcomes. In addition, attendees will learn how material selection and clinical workflow decisions can influence practice performance by reducing chair time, simplifying inventory management, and enhancing the overall patient experience. Through practical examples and proven approaches, participants will leave with tools to support sustainable growth while preserving the core values that define high-quality, health-focused care.

Smart Materials, Smarter Dentistry: Unlocking the Power of Glass Restoratives
Presenter: Dr. Jeanette MacLean
Sponsor: GC America
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Take your patient care to the next level by incorporating materials that do more than just ‘fill’ or ‘seal’ teeth. Hydrophilic, bulk-fill, biomimetic, desensitizing, remineralizing. The chemical and physical properties of glass ionomer restoratives make them an ideal dental material choice. For clinicians that are either new to glass restoratives or looking to expand their use of these materials, the wide array of products can sometimes create confusion. Dr. MacLean will use case studies to demonstrate how she utilizes different materials to achieve clinical success. Learn how glass ionomer cement sealants can do more than just provide a physical barrier from plaque on pits and fissures, they are hydrophilic, can be placed on partially erupted molars, and act as a fluoride reservoir that helps to prevent caries and enhance remineralization. Glass hybrid restoratives help to reduce post-op sensitivity, reduce recurrent caries, improve outcomes, and have enhanced physical properties for long-lasting durability and esthetics. Dental materials are evolving and so should you!

Guest: Dr. John Gammichia
Today we’re chatting with Dr. John Gammichia, a general dentist who’s made a name for himself saving what many would call “bombed out” teeth — all with conservative, direct composite. We’ll dive into how he handles deep decay and pulp exposures, the materials and techniques that make it possible, and how his approach has become a real practice builder — showing that fee-for-service dentistry focused on preserving tooth structure can be both patient-centered and profitable.

Guest: Irene Iancu, BSc, RRDH, CTDP, OM
We've all seen the white spot lesions on our patients teeth. By any measure, they're not particularly aesthetic and most patients would love them to disappear. So why is it that for a large majority of patients that are actually visiting their dentist regularly, these lesions persist and essentially detract from their smile. The only logical answer I can come up with is that many dentists are not utilizing something called resin infiltration. It's a simple procedure that is remarkably effective in essentially making white spot lesions disappear. To tell us all about it is our guest Irene Iancu. Irene is a Canadian RRDH and entrepreneur with experience in various specialties like Pediatrics, Orthodontics, and Periodontics, she has combined all these elements in her start-up dental practice in Toronto, Toothlife Studio. Irene is an international speaker, key opinion leader, host of the Tooth or Dare podcast and creates educational content on all social platforms under the handle @toothlife.irene.
