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 with a built-in 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.

Freehand composite bonding can be technique-sensitive, time-consuming, and inconsistent, even for experienced clinicians. As patient expectations continue to rise, dentists need a more predictable and efficient approach to delivering high-quality aesthetic results. This CE webinar introduces a smarter workflow for composite bonding using injection techniques. Participants will learn how to transition from freehand artistry to a structured, repeatable system that improves accuracy, efficiency, and confidence. We will cover case selection, smile design principles, matrix fabrication, and the clinical steps required to deliver predictable results. Emphasis will be placed on simplifying the workflow without sacrificing aesthetics, allowing clinicians to achieve consistent outcomes while reducing chair time and stress. Whether you are new to injection composite or looking to refine your technique, this webinar will provide practical strategies you can begin implementing immediately in your practice.

In an era where every manufacturer is throwing their hat into the shade simplification ring, how can the pragmatic doctor navigate the waters? From the promise of single shade, omnichromatic entries, to shade reduced options, and perhaps even well designed clustered shade pallets, this webinar is designed to debunk the myths and give attendees the tools to make educated material selection decisions. These decisions can lead to better inventory economics, while simultaneously improving the predictability of esthetic outcomes for patients. In this dynamic CE webinar, Dr. Hakim will share the latest innovations in the category, while also reviewing the basics of adhesive composite delivery to reinforce successful and lasting restorations.

Difficulty swallowing (dysphagia) affects your quality of life and your overall health. The ability to safely swallow is vital for adequate nutrition and hydration, and it prevents foods and liquids from entering your lungs, where they can cause pneumonia. Depending on which part of the swallowing process is affected, dysphagia can be described as: • Oral dysphagia — when the problem is in the mouth, usually due to the movement of the tongue • Pharyngeal or oropharyngeal dysphagia — when the problem is regarding food passing through the throat • Esophageal dysphagia — when food is unable to move down through the esophagus Swallowing disorders can lead to tooth decay and other oral health issues if they cause food or liquid to remain in the mouth. This can increase the risk of cavities and other oral diseases.

According to Dr. Brian Novy, the application of fluoride varnish is, hands down, the most significant procedure we can do for our patients. But as with any procedure, there’s a right way—and a wrong way—to apply fluoride varnish. Dr. Novy will shed light on common mistakes that can undermine its effectiveness, a phenomenon he calls the "fluoride bomb." We’ll discuss what can go wrong during application, how to avoid these pitfalls, and what steps you can take to ensure your patients receive the full benefits of this essential preventive treatment. Dr. Brian Novy is a practicing dentist in Boston MA. He is President of the National CAMBRA Coalition, faculty at Harvard School of Dental Medicine and Western University of Health Sciences, and consumer representative for the US Food and Drug Administration Dental Products Panel.

Guest: Dr. Jennifer Bell
For those of us who are doing chairside milling we have a lot more choices in materials than we did several years ago. In fact, there is now a CAD CAM block that actually does not require sintering. Why is this significant? Because it shaves off as much as 25 minutes from the in-office manufacturing process. Today we'll be talking to Dr. Jennifer Bell, a full-time dentist in NC, who is all about high quality dentistry with an emphasis on efficiency. She is big into digital dentistry and has had great success with her now favorite milling block. Today she will be offering all sorts of recommendations that focus on efficient same day dentistry, including 3D Printing.
