Utilizing Jaw Motion Tracking Technology as a Virtual Articulator
Presenter: Dr. Mark Kleive
Sponsor: Shining 3D
Mon  12/8/25    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT
Tue  12/9/25    0:00 AM UTC
CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU
Digital technology has made another advancement, allowing clinicians to explore the role of mandibular jaw motion tracking in enhancing digital aesthetic and restorative workflows. Participants will learn how motion tracking technology functions as a virtual articulator, enabling more precise treatment planning and predictable outcomes. Clinical case examples will illustrate how integrating jaw movement data with intraoral scanning and CAD/CAM systems supports accurate smile design, functional restorations, and improved patient care.


Cluster Shading - The Next Generation of Esthetic Restoratives
Presenter: Mr. Gregor Connell

The only constant in dental materials is change! Technological and chemical innovations are offering impressive advancements. Today’s conventional composites offer clinicians two options: First, the esthetic traditional layering technique and second, the bulk-fill technique. The former being the choice for most restorations in the anterior smile zone and the latter, often selected for the posterior regions of the mouth. While bulk-fill materials typically are deep-curing, time saving and offer clinical efficiency, they too often lack the esthetic properties required for beautiful esthetically demanding anterior restorations. For this reason, most clinicians have a second composite system in office that is designed to be placed in two-millimeter increments and will sometimes require a variety of shades to meet the esthetic demands. A new next-generation of resin composites is emerging. One that offers you the clinical efficiency of a bulk-fill, with an easy cluster shade-matching protocol and phenomenal esthetics! With outstanding, non-sticky handling and excellent polishability, perhaps now you only need one class of material for all of your restorative needs. At the conclusion of the CE webinar the attendees will have a clearer understanding of the clinical impact that this new chemistry and technology can have on their everyday restorative dentistry. More importantly, the attendees can evaluate if these evolutions may have a place in their own clinical practice.


Fluoride and Fluoride-Free Alternatives: Personalizing Care to Meet Individual Patient Needs
Presenter: LaVerne Thomas, RDH

As the demand for individualized and holistic oral care continues to grow, dental professionals must be prepared to address diverse patient preferences and questions surrounding fluoride. This engaging, evidence-based CE webinar explores the science behind remineralization and compares the efficacy of fluoride with emerging alternatives like calcium phosphate technologies, hydroxyapatite, and xylitol. Attendees will gain practical strategies to tailor care based on age, health status, caries risk, and patient concerns—while reinforcing the role of prevention in enamel health.


Learning From Our Mistakes 10 - Webinar Series
Presenter: Dr. Matthew Standridge

Part ten of the webinar series “Learning From Our Mistakes” will feature Dr. Standridge as he shares how clinical photography has transformed his orthodontic, airway-focused, and general dentistry practice. From improving patient education and treatment acceptance to streamlining documentation and communication, Dr. Standridge demonstrates how an intuitive, state-of-the-art, innovative digital dental camera makes high-quality dental photography easy and accessible for every team member. Discover how this intuitive, dental-specific camera can elevate your practice—turning photography into one of your most effective clinical and communication tools. Dr. Standridge will share practical strategies for integrating photography into daily workflows, show real case examples, and explain how consistent, high-quality images enhance both clinical outcomes and patient trust.


Similar But Not the Same: Cementation Considerations and Techniques for Zirconia vs Lithium Disilicate Crowns
Presenter: Dr. Gary Radz
Sponsor: Bisco
Tue  12/16/25    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT

Zirconia and Lithium Disilicate are the 2 most popular current materials for crowns in the US. Although they can looks very similar with their excellent esthetic properties, the materials themselves require different pre-cementation protocols and materials. Understanding the proper way to treat each material before final cementation can effect the long term clinical performance. Additionally, because of the difference in the strength of each material there can be several "best" choices of cements that can be used. This CE webinar is created to discuss and demonstrate the materials, techniques and protocols specific to each material.

CAD CAM, Nano-hybrid Composite Crowns on Immediate Loading Implants in the Aesthetic Area: Temporary or Definitive Restoration?
Presenter: Dr. Amilkar Rocha
Sponsor: VOCO America
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
This CE webinar will discuss which criteria needs to be met such as optimal primary stability, correct 3D positioning, etc., during immediate implant placement in the anterior region. Additionally, the Dr. Rocha will discuss the creation of an immediate provisional restoration on the implant while respecting biological principles leading to preservation of the papillae, gingival volume, and recession prevention. A step-by-step case will be presented showcasing the use of a stratified composite resin for both the provisional restoration as well as the infrastructure.







Innovative Biomimetic Approaches to Injectable Composite

Composite resin injectables are highly versatile materials that can be used in numerous scenarios to enhance cosmetic dental practices in a minimally invasive manner, while also facilitating everyday general dentistry. Mastery of composite dentistry, understanding proper adhesive protocols, and establishing effective isolation techniques are crucial steps toward gaining confidence in the functional outcomes of these restorations. In this CE webinar, our goal is to educate participants on how to confidently place predictable composite injectable restorations in both the esthetic zone and posterior teeth. We will cover various case types, including the increasingly popular fiber injectable composites used for build-up procedures. Additionally, we will provide an overview of the cementation protocols for indirect porcelain restorations using injectable materials.
