We've heard it all before, however what are we doing about it? Strong evidence continues to reinforce that what begins as inflammation in the mouth greatly influences disease progression in other organs and systems throughout the body. This CE webinar will explore the biologic pathways linking the compromised oral environment to systemic disease. It's time to recognize our critical role in early identification, prevention, patient education, and intervention strategies that support both oral and systemic health outcomes. Emerge with efficient, patient-centered communication tools that translate into meaningful opportunities to convey the impact of compromised oral health on systemic well-being.

Join Dr. Ed McLaren for an in-depth exploration of the latest advancements in next-generation zirconia materials and restorative workflows. Discover how recent innovations in zirconia technology are redefining esthetics, efficiency, and clinical performance through advanced material engineering. Learn how an optimized microstructure delivers exceptional translucency-even with accelerated firing protocols-while maintaining high flexural strength and lifelike optical properties that closely mimic natural dentition. This CE webinar will examine the complete restorative workflow, from digital design and material selection to milling, sintering, characterization, and final finishing. In addition, Dr. McLaren will review evidence-based preparation designs and cementation protocols that optimize restoration longevity, fit, and esthetic outcomes across a wide range of clinical indications, from minimally invasive veneers to full-arch zirconia restorations. Attendees will gain practical insights they can immediately apply to improve efficiency, predictability, and patient satisfaction in ever


Zen and the Art of Provisionals: From Single Units to Veneers

We have all had the experience of a painful crown delivery appointment. The pain isn’t referring to the patient’s experience...it’s referring to ours! As we grind on the interproximal contacts and the occlusal surfaces, we casually blame the laboratory: "They left it fat and high again!" Unfortunately, most of the time we need to turn our criticisms inward and recognize the provisional is most often the problem. It becomes an afterthought in our indirect restoration appointment, but it's incredibly important to the restorative process. Whether it be a single unit or 12 veneers, we need to be able to fabricate excellent provisionals. This CE webinar will discuss workflows to make the provisional process a breeze.


Enamel Opacities Simplified: Digital Diagnosis and Modern Minimally Invasive Solutions

Enamel opacities - white spot lesions, fluorosis, trauma, and MIH - complicate diagnosis and treatment. This CE webinar offers a modern, simplified approach using transillumination, digital workflows, and updated materials to assess lesion depth and select the right treatment, including resin infiltration. Case examples cover expectation management and efficient, predictable outcomes - helping dentists deliver minimally invasive esthetic care with confidence and consistency.


Beyond the Gums: Airway, Inflammation, and Periodontal Disease – Part 2

Periodontal disease is no longer understood as a condition driven by biofilm alone. Emerging evidence continues to highlight the role of airway dysfunction, altered breathing patterns, and chronic inflammation as contributing risk factors to periodontal breakdown. This two-part CE webinar series explores the airway–inflammation–periodontal connection through a prevention-focused, hygiene-centered lens. Participants will learn how mouth breathing and sleep-disordered breathing influence the oral microbiome, salivary function, and inflammatory burden, and how these changes present clinically during routine hygiene visits. Dental hygienists will gain practical tools for recognizing airway-related red flags, implementing simple screening strategies within their scope, communicating findings confidently with patients, and integrating prevention-based periodontal care models that support long-term stability.

The global clear aligner market is anticipated to reach a staggering $6.84 billion annually by 2028. Translation, millions of new cases will be initiated annually by both GPs and Orthodontists each year. Whether you are just tip toeing into these waters, or fully immersed, it’s critical to understand that successful case outcomes depend heavily on the mechanical advantage provided by leveraging attachments during treatment.







Smiles in Sickle Cell Care: Preventive Dental Hygiene Strategies for Enhanced Health

Patients with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) or the Sickle Cell Trait (SCT) face unique challenges when they need dental treatment. Unfortunately, many dental professionals know very little about sickle cell disease and are not aware of the clinical manifestations and precautions that should be taken when treating these patients. Sickle cell disease severely affects oral health including increased risk of infections, severe dental decay caused by vaso-occlusal neglect, delayed healing and bone density issues. Sickle cell disease is the most prevalent genetic disease affecting approximately 7.7 million people worldwide of all nationalities. Participants of this webinar will gain insights into the unique oral health challenges faced by individuals with SCD and the importance of preventive care in mitigating these risks. The CE webinar will cover essential preventive dental hygiene practices, tailored treatment planning, and communication strategies to effectively support this patient population. By focusing on initiative-taking oral health care, the webinar aims to enhance the quality of life and overall health outcomes for individuals with Sickle Cell Disease, addressing both their physical and emotional well-being.


Featured Podcast Episodes
Series: Bisco CE Credits: 0.5
Guest: Dr. Sara Kuckhoff
Our guest today, Dr. Sara Kuckhoff, is a general dentist from Michigan who has been out of dental school for six years. She has fully embraced the mindset of continuous growth. She’ll share her journey, how she pursues her passions, and why that pursuit has helped her not only enjoy her profession but also feel more confident and fulfilled as both a person and a dentist. Whether you’re a new dentist just starting or a seasoned professional looking for fresh inspiration, this episode will remind you why setting goals, staying engaged, and keeping an open mind to learning can make all the difference in your career.

Guest: Dr. John Zalesky
Composite dentistry has changed dramatically over the past decade. We've gone from stocking dozens of shades and multiple classes of composites to universal composites, simplified adhesive systems, and new techniques that promise better results with less complexity. But are these advances really changing the way we practice? Is one universal composite enough for most clinical situations? Does composite warming actually improve outcomes? And could something as simple as your curing technique be the difference between a restoration that lasts for years—or one that fails prematurely? Dr. John Zalesky will help us separate the science from the marketing as we discuss today's universal composite restorative materials, the evolution of universal adhesives and selective etching and why one particular universal composite is generating so much attention. If you're looking to simplify your composite restorative workflow without sacrificing quality, you won't want to miss this conversation.

Guest: Dr. Marvin Chacon
Whether due to insufficient bone, medical contraindications, financial constraints, or patient preferences, single-tooth implants aren’t the solution for every case. That’s where fiber-reinforced bridges come in. To tell us all about the wonders of fiber-reinforced bridges is our guest, Dr. Marvin Chacon. With over 15 years of clinical dentistry experience, he obtained his Master's in Aesthetic Dentistry from King's College London in 2022. As a clinical trainer and speaker, he focuses on modern dental materials and innovative techniques under the "minimum Intervention" approach.
