The rapid evolution of digital technologies - including facial scanning, intraoral photogrammetry (IPG), and 3D printing - has fundamentally changed the way clinicians approach full-arch dental implant rehabilitation. This CE webinar will present practical, real-world case scenarios to demonstrate how digital data - from facial scans to intraoral photogrammetry - can be aligned within a unified workflow. Emphasis will be placed on achieving a seamless digital flow between surgical and prosthetic phases, improving accuracy, efficiency, and communication. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of how to simplify the digital process, leverage emerging technologies, and apply these concepts predictably in daily clinical practice.


50 Shades of Inflammation: the Mouth Body Mind Connection

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
Tue  7/7/26    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT

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.


Growth without Compromise: Lessons Learned for Merging Practices While Maintaining a Health-centered Focus

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.

Empowering Hygienists to be Healthy, Informed, and Efficient
Presenter: Brittany Gordon, RDH
Sponsor: COLTENE
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
More and more dental offices are booked months in advance and are operating with a limited staff. Dentists expect hygienists to deliver thorough cleanings but with less time allotted for each procedure. I would like to discuss ways to increase efficiency without sacrificing quality. The demands of life make it challenging to keep up with new and innovative technology. I would like to cover the latest technological advancements and products that could lead to better patient outcomes. Finally, I want to address personal health and wellness, which is essential for career longevity. In addition to exploring in-office and home yoga techniques, I would like to conduct a deep dive into anatomy, helping hygienists understand why their bodies hurt and exploring natural options to help them feel their best and perform at their highest level. After the CE webinar you can expect to offer new, highly sought-after services that help keep dental patients from escaping your practice.

Featured Podcast Episodes
Series: VOCO America CE Credits: 0.5
Guest: Alicia Murria, RDH, MS
In today’s episode, we’re exploring the transformative role technology plays in elevating the patient experience—helping create more meaningful interactions, better outcomes, and stronger trust in the care being delivered. When dental hygienists actively engage with cutting-edge technology and the clinical tools that come with it, they not only improve patient education, case acceptance, and compliance, but also help streamline insurance claim approvals and enhance overall clinical efficiency. In doing so, many hygienists gain a renewed perspective on their profession—often leading to greater career fulfillment and satisfaction. Our guest is Alicia Murria, RDH, with a masters in dental hygiene. She can be reached at aliciamurria.com.

Series: VOCO America CE Credits: 0.5
Guest: Dr. Lauren Rainey and Dr. Mauricio Watanabe
Today we’ll explore why direct composite procedures are quickly becoming a preferred alternative to traditional indirect restorations—and how you can use hybrid techniques like deep margin elevation and model-based composite crowns to deliver exceptional results without prepping away valuable tooth structure or sending cases to the lab. Joining us are two experienced clinicians, Dr Lauren Rainey and Dr Mauricio Watanabe. They will share how the use of highly filled nanocomposite materials in their techniques are transforming the way they restore teeth—and why patients are loving the results.

Series: VOCO America CE Credits: 0.5
Guest: Dr. Lauren Rainey and Dr. Mauricio Watanabe
According to our guest, Dr. Mauricio Watanabe, a world-respected speaker and clinician, by using a highly filled nano-composite to fabricate the crown, the same material we use for our deep margin elevation and filling in our undercuts, a semi-direct full coverage restoration will provide long-term predictable success. And Dr. Watanabe has years of cases and research to support his opinion. The whole procedure can be done in 30 minutes when pouring your impression with a fast setting silicone material. So if you're looking to practice conservative dentistry and preserve as much natural tooth structure as possible and still deliver a full coverage crown, you might find the semi-direct restoration an excellent option for many of your large caries cases. Dr. Lauren Rainey, a well-respected clinician and KOL will also be joining us.
