Porcelain veneer cementation is one of the most technique-sensitive stages of aesthetic treatment. In this one-hour CE webinar, Dr. Jason Olitsky presents a practical, step-by-step approach to delivering veneer cases with greater confidence and predictability. The webinar will review the critical stages of veneer try-in and cementation, including provisional removal, bleeding control, isolation, color evaluation, porcelain preparation, seating, cement cleanup, finishing, and occlusal adjustment. Real-world challenges such as show-through, tight contacts, incomplete seating, poor fit, exposed margins, and open gingival embrasures will also be discussed. Participants will leave with practical strategies they can immediately apply to simplify veneer delivery and improve aesthetic outcomes.

What makes some composite veneers maintain their brilliance for years while others discolor prematurely? In this CE webinar, join Dr. Andrew Ballard for a science-driven exploration of the factors influencing long-term color stability in direct resin veneers. This webinar examines the relationship between polymer chemistry, degree of conversion, curing light performance, oxygen-inhibited layers, and composite filler particle size. Special attention will be given to finishing and polishing protocols and how surface texture and material selection influence staining, gloss retention, and restoration longevity. Discover practical, evidence-based strategies to minimize discoloration and create beautiful, durable composite veneers that stand the test of time.


Light, Bond, Restore: Optimizing Adhesives, Composites, and Curing Protocols for Long-Term Clinical Success

Successful direct restorations require more than selecting a composite and placing it into a preparation. Long-term clinical success is dependent upon understanding the complex relationship between adhesive systems, restorative materials, and light-curing technology. Advances in universal adhesives, bulk-fill and nanohybrid composites, antimicrobial restorative materials, and high-output LED curing lights have provided clinicians with powerful tools to improve efficiency and predictability. However, improper material selection or curing protocols can compromise polymerization, bond durability, marginal integrity, esthetics, and restoration longevity. This evidence-based CE webinar reviews the science behind contemporary adhesive dentistry and composite placement while providing practical clinical protocols that can be immediately implemented in everyday practice. Through clinical cases, current research, and real-world restorative workflows, participants will learn how to maximize restorative performance by optimizing the interaction between adhesives, composites, and curing lights.
