Good oral health plays an important role in a student’s performance at school. Dental disease can distract from learning, cause students to miss school, or even lower their self-esteem. With caries being the most common chronic childhood disease in the U.S., it is crucial for us as clinicians to have strong prevention protocols in place. Fluoride varnish is an essential tool in preventive care. But what about patients who present with active caries? This CE webinar will address silver diamine fluoride (SDF) and how it stops further progression of caries lesions thus controlling the disease even if we can’t restore the tooth with drilling and filling right away.

All too often, clinicians are stuck in the same sound loop when trying to help our patients take ownership of their disease. And yet, they come back with the same issues appointment after appointment. However, by empowering patients to take control, we can see a significant positive shift in their health management. In this CE webinar, attendees will delve into the common barriers that hinder patient collaboration and discover practical strategies to overcome these challenges. They will also learn how to implement co-diagnosis, enabling patients to actively participate in their own assessment and treatment planning. By integrating these approaches, healthcare providers can enhance patient compliance and outcomes. Understanding the patient's perspective and motivations will lead to more effective communication, greater patient satisfaction, and a more personalized approach to care.

Dentistry is a constantly evolving profession and some of the greatest changes in the past decade have come from evolutions in 3D technology. We live in a 3D world and being able to have valuable clinical data in 3D can allow us to do incredible things. We now have the clinical ability to scan, design, and 3D print in ways to allow, for the first time, truly digital workflows from start to delivery. There are many benefits to implementing 3D workflows and printing into your practice. Efficiency, accuracy, cost savings, and outcomes all improve when a practice moves from analog to digital. In this CE webinar, learn how implementing 3D printing technologies and digital workflows into your practice can decrease stress and allow you to provide incredible clinical outcomes to your patients while spending less time and less money.

Posterior restoration success has much to do with the principles in primary anatomy that are often focused on and restricted to only anterior teeth. The art of layering posterior composites is not only a functional art, it reflects our desire to mimic nature in esthetics also in our practice of Bio-Emulation. Conversely, there are anatomical features of anterior teeth that are often neglected, just because they are out of direct frontal sight. When are teeth "too weak" for some restorative materials? How does one dial in the occlusion to maximize success using modern direct materials some never thought possible to use in extensive applications? How can we humanely and successfully place large restorations with a conservative slant in youngsters with massive structural deficits? What are the keys to success in posterior bonding besides esthetic? How do we minimize post-operative sensitivity and marginal leakage? How do we maximize shear bond strengths to the substrate, much of which is "unpredictable" dentin? We will review curing strategies for best long-term clinical success.
During this CE webinar, we will
• Identify the different sources of hypersensitivity
• Learn various products to address hypersensitivity whether it is procedural or residual
• Understand the mechanism of action of various desensitizing products and how to select the correct one or combination
• Learn how to implement these products into your current clinical protocols
This fast paced CE webinar will introduce clinicians to injection molding techniques and applications. Emphasis will be placed on how to prepare for clinical cases using the injection molding method. Materials and armamentarium that lend themselves to injection molding will be explored. Proper bonding, placement and finishing techniques will be discussed and practiced.
