Mastering the complexities of periodontal disease requires a seamless bridge between diagnostic precision and patient-centered execution. This case-based CE webinar is designed to demystify the AAP Periodontal Classification System, transforming it from a diagnostic checklist into a powerful framework for clinical decision-making. Participants will engage in the practical application of staging and grading, learning how to translate clinical findings directly into highly customized, evidence-based treatment plans. Beyond the probe depths, we will explore the latest modalities in non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT), advanced biofilm management strategies, and the science behind individualized homecare recommendations. Through guided, interactive case walkthroughs, you will apply these concepts to real-world clinical scenarios, sharpening your diagnostic ability and treatment confidence. Finally, because the best treatment plan only works if the patient partners with you, the course concludes with actionable Motivational Interviewing (MI) techniques. You will leave equipped to elevate your patient communication, break down barriers to treatment acceptance, and inspire long-term homecare compliance.

Dental unit waterlines remain one of the most overlooked infection prevention challenges in dentistry. While biofilm forms naturally in every dental waterline system, inadequate waterline management can compromise patient safety, increase regulatory risk, and expose practices to unnecessary liability. Presented by the President of the Georgia Board of Dentistry, who championed the development of Georgia’s Dental Unit Waterline Rule, this CE webinar provides practical, evidence-based guidance for building a comprehensive waterline management program that supports long-term compliance and consistent clinical outcomes. Participants will gain insight into emerging regulatory expectations, proven strategies for sustainable waterline safety, and the key elements of a successful program that protects patients while reducing risk. Whether building a new program or strengthening an existing one, attendees will leave with practical insights to help create a lasting culture of safe dental water.

Hidden Risks in the Operatory: Infection Control Gaps During Everyday Procedures
Presenter: India Chance, RDH
Sponsor: VOCO America
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Infection control in the dental operatory often focuses on major protocols, yet many risks arise from small, routine oversights that occur during everyday procedures. These seemingly minor gaps such as improper handling of materials, inconsistent surface asepsis, and lapses in workflow can significantly increase the potential for cross-contamination and compromise both patient and provider safety. This one-hour CE webinar will highlight common infection control missteps observed in clinical settings and provide practical, compliant strategies to reduce risk. Special attention will be given to the handling and management of chairside materials, including restorative products, and how proper utilization can support safer clinical workflows. Participants will leave with actionable techniques to strengthen infection control practices, improve compliance with OSHA and CDC guidelines, and create a more consistent culture of safety within the operatory.
