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

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.

Sleep. Worry. Exercise. Daily disease control. Alcohol consumption. Sugar reduction. The list is long for behaviors or habits we strive to improve. Human nature enables us to commit to better habits repeatedly, but what are the keys to sustainability? Is there science to improve the predictability of achieving desired outcomes once new resolve or behavior is initiated? What strategies will help our patients achieve desired outcomes to improve beneficial behavior changes? Developing healthy habits to generate giant outcomes is not only realistic but can be sustained. Discover how others have paved the way. Be empowered to embrace even the most elusive behavior choices you or your patients have longed for!

While most dentists consider fillings a major part of their bread and butter practice repertoire, most would agree that they are not enjoyable. voids, overhangs, post-op sensitivity, marginal leakage and stain, all combine to make fillings stressful, annoying, and difficult. In this highly relatable and pragmatic one hour CE webinar, Dr. Gupta shares simple products, procedural tweaks, and innovative strategy that make this part of dentistry more satisfying.

We’ve heard it all before, however what are we doing about it? Strong evidence continues to reinforce that what begins as inflammation in the mouth greatly influences disease progression in other organs and systems throughout the body. This CE webinar will explore the biologic pathways linking the compromised oral environment to systemic disease. It’s time to recognize our critical role in early identification, prevention, patient education, and intervention strategies that support both oral and systemic health outcomes. Emerge with efficient, patient-centered communication tools that translate into meaningful opportunities to convey the impact of compromised oral health on systemic well-being.

Join Dr. Ed McLaren for an in-depth exploration of the latest advancements in next-generation zirconia materials and restorative workflows. Discover how recent innovations in zirconia technology are redefining esthetics, efficiency, and clinical performance through advanced material engineering. Learn how an optimized microstructure delivers exceptional translucency—even with accelerated firing protocols—while maintaining high flexural strength and lifelike optical properties that closely mimic natural dentition. This CE webinar will examine the complete restorative workflow, from digital design and material selection to milling, sintering, characterization, and final finishing. In addition, Dr. McLaren will review evidence-based preparation designs and cementation protocols that optimize restoration longevity, fit, and esthetic outcomes across a wide range of clinical indications, from minimally invasive veneers to full-arch zirconia restorations. Attendees will gain practical insights they can immediately apply to improve efficiency, predictability, and patient satisfaction in ever

Tackling MIH and Trauma Lesions with Resin Infiltration
Presenter: Dr. Jeanette MacLean
Sponsor: DMG America
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Unsightly congenital enamel defects from molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) and trauma can be troublesome for many patients. Historically, these blemishes have been treated with invasive and costly resin bondings and veneers. Dealing with enamel defects can prove particularly troublesome for young patients, which when left untreated, often become a source of embarrassment for the patient. This CE webinar will review tips and tricks to manage these enamel defects with resin infiltration. This noninvasive approach can improve or even completely reverse the appearance of congenital enamel defects while preserving tooth structure and repairing the patient’s natural enamel.







Integrating Digital Dentistry and AI Applications into Esthetic Clinical Workflows
Presenter: Dr. Carlos Escobar
Sponsor: Bisco
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Digital dentistry and artificial intelligence are transforming the way clinicians diagnose, treatment plan, communicate with patients, and deliver care. This CE webinar explores practical applications of intraoral scanning, digital smile design, CAD/CAM technologies, 3D printing, and AI-assisted treatment planning tools that can be incorporated into everyday clinical workflows. Special emphasis will be placed on digital smile design platforms which utilize facial references and clinician-specific design preferences to create personalized esthetic outcomes. Through clinical cases and real-world examples, attendees will gain insight into how digital technologies can enhance efficiency, accuracy, patient engagement, and treatment outcomes. Clinical cases will also demonstrate how adhesive protocols and restorative materials can be seamlessly integrated into digital workflows from treatment planning through final restoration delivery. Participants will leave with practical strategies for implementing digital workflows and AI-powered solutions in both private practice and academic settings.
