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.

This clinical, workflow-focused CE webinar walks through how CBCT is integrated into everyday implant dentistry—from diagnosis and case selection to virtual planning and guided placement. Attendees will see how cone beam data is used to evaluate anatomy, assess risk, and determine restorative-driven implant positioning.
The webinar will feature a “scan to plan” demonstration: opening implant planning software, reviewing a CBCT scan, and virtually placing an implant in real time, with discussion of key landmarks, safety zones, and restorative considerations, including guide fabrication.
Guided workflows will be covered in detail, including when to place freehand vs. guided, how guides are designed, and the steps involved in guide fabrication—whether produced in-house or through a lab/third-party service.

This CE webinar is about real dentistry for real patients by a real dentist! Dr. Glazer will present a potpourri of materials and techniques for patients that present with caries and broken teeth that will make your day at the office easier and more productive. The webinar will focus on adhesive restorations and crown and bridge solutions. He will discuss what’s tried and true, and what’s new. Learning about the latest products will benefit you and your patients with materials that are faster, easier, and better for you and your patients. Dr. Glazer, international lecturer and author, writes a bi-monthly column, “I Have It…You Need It!” in Dental Economics magazine where he reviews new products and materials.
The only constant in dental materials is change! Technological and chemical innovations are offering impressive advancements. Today’s conventional composites offer clinicians two options: First, the esthetic traditional layering technique and second, the bulk-fill technique. The former being the choice for most restorations in the anterior smile zone and the latter, often selected for the posterior regions of the mouth. While bulk-fill materials typically are deep-curing, time saving and offer clinical efficiency, they too often lack the esthetic properties required for beautiful esthetically demanding anterior restorations. For this reason, most clinicians have a second composite system in office that is designed to be placed in two-millimeter increments and will sometimes require a variety of shades to meet the esthetic demands. A new next-generation of resin composites is emerging. One that offers you the clinical efficiency of a bulk-fill, with an easy cluster shade-matching protocol and phenomenal esthetics! With outstanding, non-sticky handling and excellent polishability, perhaps now you only need one class of material for all of your restorative needs. At the conclusion of the CE webinar the attendees will have a clearer understanding of the clinical impact that this new chemistry and technology can have on their everyday restorative dentistry. More importantly, the attendees can evaluate if these evolutions may have a place in their own clinical practice.
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.

Today we’re chatting with Dr. John Gammichia, a general dentist who’s made a name for himself saving what many would call “bombed out” teeth — all with conservative, direct composite. We’ll dive into how he handles deep decay and pulp exposures, the materials and techniques that make it possible, and how his approach has become a real practice builder — showing that fee-for-service dentistry focused on preserving tooth structure can be both patient-centered and profitable.
