We know that when we perform direct bonding procedures, our adhesives and restorative materials can cause proteolytic responses in the dentin structure, which may ultimately lead to failure at the interface. However, we tend to overlook the possibility of similar outcomes with our resin cements. As we create the same hybridization of the dentin, there is a potential for failure due to bacterial contamination, insufficient infiltration, and the acidity of our resin cement. This CE webinar aims to explore a cementation process that can significantly improve the success of this critical restorative procedure.

One of the most popular restorative options available today for patients is the use of full-contoured milled zirconia. Advances in new multilayered zirconia blocks and sintering technology, combined with the ability to super-fast mill zirconia restorations, affords the opportunity to provide single-visit zirconia restorations for our patients in a fast and efficient manner. Zirconia restorations can be predictably and efficiently milled, sintered, polished, and delivered in as little as an hour. In this CE webinar, Karyn M. Halpern DMD, MS will discuss the chairside workflow using Zirconia. The properties and clinical applications of the latest zirconia blocks will be reviewed. Techniques on how to pre-polish, polish after sintering, and stain and glaze will be presented.

Cone beam CT has revolutionized the dental field by allowing clinicians to visualize the patient in 3D. This technology has increased productivity and efficiency. This CE webinar is designed to help the dental practitioner to better understand 3D imaging technology as well as what to consider when purchasing a CBCT for their office. In addition, the webinar will help the clinician to recognize the clinical applications in implantology, endodontics, surgery, orthodontics, periodontology, and pathology using a case-based approach.
The hygiene department plays a major role in the health of a practice, some may even say it is the heart of a dental practice. Knowing and improving your hygiene department vital signs can be critical to overall practice success. Hygienists are in unique positions, typically having the most one-on-one contact with the patients. They are typically first in line to present the benefits of preventive, restorative or aesthetic dentistry, providing suggestions and assisting with the decision process, setting the stage for case acceptance. Besides the direct patient care and helping patients understand the best treatment for their wants or conditions, there is also the business side of the profession – what does hygiene contribute to the financial success of the practice? A hygienist who understands the value of their position, the hygiene vital signs and thus the business side of their department can then be prepared for discussions with their employer regarding incorporation of new technology or even wage increases. This CE webinar will provide the participant with the tools and techniques to identify the vital signs of a health hygiene department, show how a successful hygienist can help improve the health of the practice, the health of the patients and promote the value they bring to the table.
Anterior direct composite restorations are commonly regarded as one of the more intricate procedures within the realm of everyday dentistry. This particular aspect of dentistry requires the expertise of both the dental technician and the restorative dentist. Throughout this CE webinar, we will explore the significance of adhering to a straightforward checklist that can significantly enhance the predictability of direct resin restorations in the anterior region. Our focus will encompass the latest bonding protocol, which falls under the purview of Biomimetic Dentistry. By delving into numerous clinical examples, we will gain insights into a streamlined workflow that facilitates the attainment of reliable outcomes when working with composite materials in the anterior region. We will underscore the importance of case design, morphology, shade selection, and finishing techniques.
