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.

Socket Preservation is becoming a standard of care after dental extraction. Preservation of the ridge is important not only for dental implant surgery but for the long term health and well being of both tooth and ridge supported prosthetics. In this CE webinar, we give a high yield review of the technical considerations and graft selections available today. The goal is for the clinician to confidently discuss and integrate this effective and rewarding procedure into their practices.
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.
This CE webinar will deal with numerous aspects of comprehensive restorative aesthetic dentistry and efficient patient care in today’s dental practice. We will discuss how to make routine dental procedures such as adhesion and direct resins more predictable and efficient using the latest material technologies. Also discussed will be the indirect restoration protocol including preparation design for the current restorative materials and the use of impression materials vs digital technologies. Insertion protocols will also be addressed to aide the clinician in developing a foolproof method to deliver high quality, long-lasting restorations.

In today’s episode, we’re focusing on one of the most critical — and often overlooked — elements of clear aligner therapy: clear aligner attachments. If you’ve ever dealt with aligners that don’t seat, patients who fall behind in treatment, or cases that just aren’t progressing as planned, we’ve got some troubleshooting tips you won’t want to miss. Our guest is Dr. Foroud Hakim. He has maintained a private dental practice for over 30 years, is a sought after key opinion leader and speaker and is a highly respected consultant for new product evaluation and development.

Composite dentistry has changed dramatically over the past decade. We've gone from stocking dozens of shades and multiple classes of composites to universal composites, simplified adhesive systems, and new techniques that promise better results with less complexity. But are these advances really changing the way we practice? Is one universal composite enough for most clinical situations? Does composite warming actually improve outcomes? And could something as simple as your curing technique be the difference between a restoration that lasts for years—or one that fails prematurely? Dr. John Zalesky will help us separate the science from the marketing as we discuss today's universal composite restorative materials, the evolution of universal adhesives and selective etching and why one particular universal composite is generating so much attention. If you're looking to simplify your composite restorative workflow without sacrificing quality, you won't want to miss this conversation.

What does it mean for dental hygienists to take charge of the operatory? Traditionally seen as supporting roles, hygienists have focused on cleaning teeth and patient education. But our guest today believes they can do much more—enhancing case acceptance, improving clinical outcomes, and elevating overall patient care. Her mission is to empower hygienists to lead, take ownership of their role, and contribute beyond their clinical duties. Dr. Kelly Tanner is a reg dental hygienist who holds a Ph.D. in Business and Leadership. Her website is nextleveldentalhygiene.com.
