The current technological advances led to creating of all-tissues lasers for dental use like Er:YAG and CO2. However, these lasers have different characteristics based on their wavelength and main chromophores. While the Er:YAG laser is absorbed mainly by water and less by hydroxyapatite, the CO2 laser(s) are predominantly absorbed by hydroxyapatite and less by water. These differences are giving specific tissue interactions providing advantages and disadvantages in the context of different procedures. In contrast with Er:YAG laser the CO2 laser can ensure absolute hemostasis which is essential for the bleeding control but this is not desirable during the flap surgery where the tissue vitality is essential for the final success of the therapy. The caries treatment is also a challenge for the CO2 laser because of the highest absorption in the hydroxyapatite which is resulting in superficial energy concentration and melting. And while the melted surface is preferred for treatment of dentinal hypersensitivity, in the context of caries treatment it could affect negatively the adhesive strength. These and many other aspects of laser-assisted treatment will be discussed in this lecture illustrated by relevant clinical cases and supported by evidence-based scientific data.

Discover how preparation design, adhesive protocols, and bioactive restorative materials work together to create stronger, longer-lasting, more predictable restorations. Adhesive dentistry has transformed the way we restore teeth, but successful restorative treatment requires more than simply creating a strong bond. Material selection, preparation design, isolation, and an understanding of how restorative materials interact with the oral environment all play a critical role in long-term clinical success. This CE webinar explores the evolution of restorative dentistry beyond traditional adhesive concepts and examines how bioactive restorative materials can contribute to durable, predictable outcomes. Through evidence-based principles, clinical techniques, and real-world case presentations, participants will gain practical strategies for improving efficiency, reducing failures, and selecting restorative materials that support both the restoration and the surrounding tooth structure.

Why send procedures out when you can treat them confidently in your own practice? With the 9.3-Micron CO2 laser, clinicians can perform a wide range of soft and osseous tissue procedures in a way that is efficient, minimally invasive, and patient-friendly. In this CE webinar, Dr. Yooson Kim will explore how this technology supports clean, precise procedures with reduced bleeding and minimal need for sutures, while elevating the overall patient experience. Discover how incorporating these techniques can expand your scope of care with procedures like gingivectomies, frenectomies, crown lengthening, and more.

This CE webinar provides a comprehensive overview of the complete digital denture workflow, from patient evaluation and intraoral scanning to CAD design, 3D printing, post-processing, and final delivery. Through live demonstrations and practical clinical guidance, participants will learn how to identify appropriate cases for digital dentures, capture accurate digital impressions, design dentures using CAD software, and prepare files for 3D printing. The webinar also explores validated printing materials, finishing protocols, and chairside delivery techniques, equipping clinicians with the knowledge to incorporate an efficient, predictable digital denture workflow into everyday practice.
Featured On-Demand CE Webinars
Periodontal disease is no longer understood as a condition driven by biofilm alone. Emerging evidence continues to highlight the role of airway dysfunction, altered breathing patterns, and chronic inflammation as contributing risk factors to periodontal breakdown. This two-part CE webinar series explores the airway-inflammation-periodontal connection through a prevention-focused, hygiene-centered lens. Participants will learn how mouth breathing and sleep-disordered breathing influence the oral microbiome, salivary function, and inflammatory burden, and how these changes present clinically during routine hygiene visits. Dental hygienists will gain practical tools for recognizing airway-related red flags, implementing simple screening strategies within their scope, communicating findings confidently with patients, and integrating prevention-based periodontal care models that support long-term stability.
This is a CE webinar about real dentistry for real people by a real dentist! Dr. Glazer has been practicing for 50 years and knows what materials, products and techniques will make your day at the office easier, more productive and fun! This unique webinar will discuss what’s tried and true, and what’s new. Topics may include adhesives, composites, prevention, provisional materials, tissue retraction, lasers, rotary cutting instruments, curing lights, and patient management tools.
To provide patients with the best adhesive restorative dentistry, we are required to have absolute isolation and a firm understanding of bonding principles. Upon completion of this CE webinar, the student will be able to:
• Understand the importance of rubber dam isolation
• Be familiar with the basics of isolation
• Understand the fundamental principles of bonding

In today’s episode, we’re sitting down with Dr. Susan McMahon to talk about a piece of technology that’s truly changed the way she practices dentistry—the 3D printer. From printing precise dental models to fabricating occlusal guards with ease, we’ll dive into how this powerful tool is streamlining everyday tasks and bringing new levels of efficiency and accuracy to the dental office.

We'll be talking about the 3D printer itself as well as the materials that go into them. So if you thinking about incorporating 3D printing into your practice stay tuned for a very interesting episode. Our guest is Dr. Jeffrey Horowitz, a seasoned clinician and educator who is passionate about dentists seeing themselves as Oral and Facial Health Care Physicians rather than tooth mechanics.

Part of the strategy of a successful practice, as our guest points out, is to get the patient to become part of the conversation. This of course helps with case acceptance and patient satisfaction. We'll be talking about the importance of cusp protection in our restorations and why it's so important to consider a crown versus composite restorative. We'll also discuss how the standardization of dental materials within a given practice helps improve efficiency and productivity.
Dr. Derse is a mentor at the Kois Center in Seattle, WA and has lectured internationally on cosmetics, restorative dentistry, aligner therapy, and case presentation and acceptance.
