Join us for Full SPEED Ahead: From STML to SPEED - Lessons Learned from 8 Years of Digital Dentistry, a webinar exploring the evolution of multilayer zirconia and its impact on modern digital restorative workflows. This CE webinar will review how optimized milling and sintering protocols can help reduce turnaround times while maintaining esthetic and functional outcomes. Participants will gain practical strategies for implementing high-speed zirconia workflows that improve efficiency, profitability, and the patient experience. The discussion will also highlight how expanded shade options can simplify treatment planning and inventory management in a digital practice.

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.

This CE webinar explores step by step planning and workflow designed to maximize the longevity of indirect cosmetic restorations. From diagnosis to photography communication with the ceramist, as well as, isolation, bonding protocols to the final delivery, each phase plays a crucial role in creating restorations that stand the test of time. Learn how to integrate clinical precision with modern techniques to endure predicable and durable outcomes for the patient.
Cementation is the final, decisive step that determines whether an otherwise excellent indirect restoration succeeds or fails, yet it's often where protocols become inconsistent, rushed, or based on habit rather than the specific material in hand. With the range of restorative materials in use today (zirconia, lithium disilicate and other glass-ceramics), no single cement or surface-treatment protocol applies to every case. This CE webinar takes a substrate-driven approach: matching the cement category and preparation steps to the restorative material, the clinical situation, and the amount of retention available.
Through a step-by-step walkthrough of the cementation workflow, this CE webinar covers cement selection, intaglio surface treatment, the role of primers and silane coupling agents, isolation and contamination control, try-in and cleaning, seating, and finishing. The goal is to give clinicians a clear decision framework they can apply chairside to improve predictability, reduce post-operative sensitivity and debonding, and streamline what is often an unnecessarily complicated part of restorative dentistry.
Composite resin injectables are highly versatile materials that can be used in numerous scenarios to enhance cosmetic dental practices in a minimally invasive manner, while also facilitating everyday general dentistry. Mastery of composite dentistry, understanding proper adhesive protocols, and establishing effective isolation techniques are crucial steps toward gaining confidence in the functional outcomes of these restorations. In this CE webinar, our goal is to educate participants on how to confidently place predictable composite injectable restorations in both the esthetic zone and posterior teeth. We will cover various case types, including the increasingly popular fiber injectable composites used for build-up procedures. Additionally, we will provide an overview of the cementation protocols for indirect porcelain restorations using injectable materials.

In today’s episode, we’re exploring the transformative role technology plays in elevating the patient experience—helping create more meaningful interactions, better outcomes, and stronger trust in the care being delivered. When dental hygienists actively engage with cutting-edge technology and the clinical tools that come with it, they not only improve patient education, case acceptance, and compliance, but also help streamline insurance claim approvals and enhance overall clinical efficiency. In doing so, many hygienists gain a renewed perspective on their profession—often leading to greater career fulfillment and satisfaction. Our guest is Alicia Murria, RDH, with a masters in dental hygiene. She can be reached at aliciamurria.com.

Whether due to insufficient bone, medical contraindications, financial constraints, or patient preferences, single-tooth implants aren’t the solution for every case. That’s where fiber-reinforced bridges come in. To tell us all about the wonders of fiber-reinforced bridges is our guest, Dr. Marvin Chacon. With over 15 years of clinical dentistry experience, he obtained his Master's in Aesthetic Dentistry from King's College London in 2022. As a clinical trainer and speaker, he focuses on modern dental materials and innovative techniques under the "minimum Intervention" approach.
