Periodontal remission represents a new clinical benchmark for long-term stability. This evidence-based CE webinar empowers dental professionals to integrate precision assessment, inflammation control, and patient-centered home-care strategies to manage periodontally involved patients effectively. Participants will examine the current understanding of the oral microbiome, explore innovative technologies for diagnosis and monitoring, and learn how to personalize care protocols that promote measurable clinical improvement and sustained remission.

Indirect restorative dentistry involves many details that can significantly affect the final outcome, with preparation and temporization often being overlooked. In this CE webinar, we will cover how to properly fabricate ideal crowns, bridges, and veneers using advanced provisional materials, while also addressing the critical role of temporary cements. We’ll discuss how cement selection impacts retention, sensitivity, marginal seal, and esthetics, and provide guidance on choosing the right cement for different clinical situations to ensure predictable, successful results.

Take your patient care to the next level by incorporating materials that do more than just ‘fill’ or ‘seal’ teeth. Hydrophilic, bulk-fill, biomimetic, desensitizing, remineralizing. The chemical and physical properties of glass ionomer restoratives make them an ideal dental material choice. For clinicians that are either new to glass restoratives or looking to expand their use of these materials, the wide array of products can sometimes create confusion. Dr. MacLean will use case studies to demonstrate how she utilizes different materials to achieve clinical success. Learn how glass ionomer cement sealants can do more than just provide a physical barrier from plaque on pits and fissures, they are hydrophilic, can be placed on partially erupted molars, and act as a fluoride reservoir that helps to prevent caries and enhance remineralization. Glass hybrid restoratives help to reduce post-op sensitivity, reduce recurrent caries, improve outcomes, and have enhanced physical properties for long-lasting durability and esthetics. Dental materials are evolving and so should you!

Digital technology has made another advancement, allowing clinicians to explore the role of mandibular jaw motion tracking in enhancing digital aesthetic and restorative workflows. Participants will learn how motion tracking technology functions as a virtual articulator, enabling more precise treatment planning and predictable outcomes. Clinical case examples will illustrate how integrating jaw movement data with intraoral scanning and CAD/CAM systems supports accurate smile design, functional restorations, and improved patient care.

In this CE webinar about resin infiltration, join us in discussing its use in primary carious lesions, fluorosis, traumatic hypomineralisations and MIH.
A vast majority of the indirect restorations place in the dental practice currently are either fabricated from zirconia or lithium disilicate. The popularity of these materials is due to their excellent esthetics, durability and can be fabricated at a reasonable fee. But these materials are different and a significant factor in the clinical longevity of these materials is following correct clinical protocol at delivery and an understanding of the what the best choices of cement materials that are currently available. This CE webinar will discuss the appropriate protocol for the pretreatment of these two materials to maximize the retention of each type of restoration. Additionally, the webinar will discuss the different categories of dental cements currently available and which cements are better choices for each type of material and the clinical situation presented.
This CE webinar will discuss which criteria needs to be met such as optimal primary stability, correct 3D positioning, etc., during immediate implant placement in the anterior region. Additionally, the Dr. Rocha will discuss the creation of an immediate provisional restoration on the implant while respecting biological principles leading to preservation of the papillae, gingival volume, and recession prevention. A step-by-step case will be presented showcasing the use of a stratified composite resin for both the provisional restoration as well as the infrastructure.

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.

Until recently, Dr. Sarah Winter, who runs a cosmetic focused practice in La Jolla CA, used two different composite systems for her direct restorative cases. She used a micro-filled composite for her anterior cases for high polishability and a bulk fill for her posterior cases which provided lots of strength. But recently, she found one material that actually does both, offering strength and esthetics. According to Dr. Winter, this newer material has made her life and her staff's a whole lot easier. Today we'll talk about her transition to this new restorative composite.

So we're beginning to hear more and more about the benefits of warming composite. For one thing, because of the lower viscosity at the time of application, it's a whole lot easier on your hand. But the real benefit lies in adaptation and we all know that the better adaptation, the less likely we'll see recurrent decay and post-operative sensitivity. To tell us why she loves warming composite and how easy it is to make the transition in your operatory to this technique, is our guest Dr. Lauren Rainey. Dr. Rainey is a regular contributor on Viva Learning.com and currently teaches direct restorative techniques to dentists in the US & Canada.
