Good oral health plays an important role in a student’s performance at school. Dental disease can distract from learning, cause students to miss school, or even lower their self-esteem. With caries being the most common chronic childhood disease in the U.S., it is crucial for us as clinicians to have strong prevention protocols in place. Fluoride varnish is an essential tool in preventive care. But what about patients who present with active caries? This CE webinar will address silver diamine fluoride (SDF) and how it stops further progression of caries lesions thus controlling the disease even if we can’t restore the tooth with drilling and filling right away.

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.

Dentistry is a constantly evolving profession and some of the greatest changes in the past decade have come from evolutions in 3D technology. We live in a 3D world and being able to have valuable clinical data in 3D can allow us to do incredible things. We now have the clinical ability to scan, design, and 3D print in ways to allow, for the first time, truly digital workflows from start to delivery. There are many benefits to implementing 3D workflows and printing into your practice. Efficiency, accuracy, cost savings, and outcomes all improve when a practice moves from analog to digital. In this CE webinar, learn how implementing 3D printing technologies and digital workflows into your practice can decrease stress and allow you to provide incredible clinical outcomes to your patients while spending less time and less money.

Have you thought about how medical and recreational marijuana use may impact you as a practitioner? This CE webinar will discuss your possible liabilities in the treatment of patients using this drug. With states legalizing marijuana, it will be challenging to address just how to safely provide dentistry to our patients. We’ll discuss how to make common sense decisions on a topic that may prove to be very challenging in the future. We will also discuss the basic history, method of use, myths, and provide a general knowledge of this complex and ever-changing topic.
While the dental patient typically never steps into the mechanical room, the equipment in this room is vital to the operation of the entire dental practice. The main components of the mechanical room consist of the air compressor and vacuum system—literally the heart and lungs of your practice. Simply put, without these systems, your practice cannot function! This CE webinar will discuss the vital equipment in the mechanical room including air compressors, central vacuum systems, and amalgam separators. Air quality issues in the mechanical room, and technological trends in equipment (such as internet connectivity and variable frequency drives on vacuum systems), and eco-friendly considerations for the future will be addressed to enhance equipment performance, minimize downtime, reduce cost of repairs, and promote sustainability efforts.
