Wed  12/3/25    0:00 AM UTC
CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU
Periodontal remission represents a new clinical benchmark for long-term stability. This evidence-based CE webinar empowers dental professionals to integrate precision assessment, inflammation control, and patient-centered home-care strategies to manage periodontally involved patients effectively. Participants will examine the current understanding of the oral microbiome, explore innovative technologies for diagnosis and monitoring, and learn how to personalize care protocols that promote measurable clinical improvement and sustained remission.


The Power of the Temporary: Elevating Restorative Success
Presenter: Dr. Chad Duplantis
Sponsor: DMG America
Wed  12/3/25    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT
Thu  12/4/25    0:00 AM UTC
CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU
Indirect restorative dentistry involves many details that can significantly affect the final outcome, with preparation and temporization often being overlooked. In this CE webinar, we will cover how to properly fabricate ideal crowns, bridges, and veneers using advanced provisional materials, while also addressing the critical role of temporary cements. We’ll discuss how cement selection impacts retention, sensitivity, marginal seal, and esthetics, and provide guidance on choosing the right cement for different clinical situations to ensure predictable, successful results.


Smart Materials, Smarter Dentistry: Unlocking the Power of Glass Restoratives
Presenter: Dr. Jeanette MacLean
Sponsor: GC America

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!


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

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
Sponsor: VOCO America
Tue  12/9/25    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT

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.


Featured On-Demand CE Webinars






Radiation Safety in Pediatric Dentistry: Where We Stand in 2025
Presenter: Dr. Juan Yepes
Sponsor: Air Techniques
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
In the ever-evolving landscape of dental imaging, ensuring radiation safety remains a cornerstone of ethical and effective practice. This CE webinar explores current best practices, regulatory updates, and emerging technologies that impact radiation use in the dental field. Dental professionals will also be provided with a comprehensive review of ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) principles, digital radiography advancements, and safety protocols tailored to modern clinical environments. A key focus will be on digital radiology, including the differences between direct and indirect digital imaging systems. Participants will examine the benefits and limitations of each approach—direct systems (such as CMOS and CCD sensors) that provide immediate image capture, and indirect systems (like PSP plates) that require scanning but offer greater flexibility in certain clinical scenarios.







Turn Up The Heat: Composite Warming Techniques and Implementation
Presenter: Dr. Lauren Rainey
Sponsor: VOCO America
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Heating your composite isn’t just trendy, it makes the materials easier to handle without having to swap out all the products you already have in your operatory! This CE webinar will cover the benefits of heated composite, techniques to provide predictable results and review tools to make it easy to implement in your practice.

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.

Guest: Dr. Alex Vasserman
So there are quite a few materials to choose from these days when it comes to our indirect restorations. Today we'll be talking about the popular ones and we'll also be discussing how we get them to stay on the tooth, meaning, do we go adhesive or cohesive and what are some of the materials we should be considering. To tell us all about is our guest Dr. Alex Vasserman, a practicing dentist in NYC.
