In the dental space we seek consistency and predictability. It is easy to rely on the "that is what I learned in dental school" philosophy for day-to-day clinical success. New developments in techniques and materials offer great clinical advantages, but can create stress of the unknown and disruption of current office workflows. Changing systems and techniques, or utilizing a new product can be done with a clear road map to implement changes chairside, and understanding messaging for patients. Participants will attend a course that is designed to alleviate the stress of implementing a new system, by creating a working roadmap for office transition to new workflows, software, and clear patient communication. The CE webinar will cover the basics of aligner design, materials, and mechanical advantages to understand the importance of product selection. The webinar will cover the top ten why's and how's that can alleviate office stress and improve patient communication. After the webinar, the attendee should be able to construct a plan to change aligner systems or implement an aligner program within their practice.

Digital dentistry and artificial intelligence are transforming the way clinicians diagnose, treatment plan, communicate with patients, and deliver care. This CE webinar explores practical applications of intraoral scanning, digital smile design, CAD/CAM technologies, 3D printing, and AI-assisted treatment planning tools that can be incorporated into everyday clinical workflows. Special emphasis will be placed on digital smile design platforms which utilize facial references and clinician-specific design preferences to create personalized esthetic outcomes. Through clinical cases and real-world examples, attendees will gain insight into how digital technologies can enhance efficiency, accuracy, patient engagement, and treatment outcomes. Clinical cases will also demonstrate how adhesive protocols and restorative materials can be seamlessly integrated into digital workflows from treatment planning through final restoration delivery. Participants will leave with practical strategies for implementing digital workflows and AI-powered solutions in both private practice and academic settings.

Dental unit waterlines remain one of the most overlooked infection prevention challenges in dentistry, yet contaminated water can have serious consequences for both patients and dental teams. This engaging CE webinar separates fact from fiction while giving participants practical, evidence-based strategies they can implement immediately. We'll explore how biofilm forms, why it can be so difficult to eliminate, and what current research tells us about testing, treatment, maintenance, and documentation. You'll also discover how equipment design can play a role in reducing biofilm formation, including newer delivery systems engineered to minimize stagnant water and simplify long-term waterline maintenance. Whether you're just getting started or refining an existing waterline program, you'll leave with a realistic roadmap for keeping your dental unit waterlines clean, compliant, and working for you—not against you.

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.
Featured On-Demand CE Webinars
Direct resin posterior restorations can be challenging to blend with the surrounding tooth structure for several reasons ranging from discoloration of underlying tooth structure that can result when replacing an old amalgam that stained the dentin, teeth discolored due to tetracycline or other things related to when the tooth developed, tooth shades that do not fit standard Vita shades, to enamel and dentin that varies in shade on the tooth. Luckily, advances in restorative composite materials have allowed development of single shade resin materials for direct restorations, offering a simpler process using fewer materials to achieve excellent aesthetics that blends with the surrounding tooth. In this CE webinar, the benefits of using a universal shade composite to simplify direct resin restorations for use for Class I and II restorations, Class V restorations and core buildups will be discussed.
This comprehensive CE webinar explores the unique oral health challenges that arise during key hormonal phases in a woman's life: puberty, pregnancy, and menopause. Participants will gain insight into the biological mechanisms behind oral-systemic changes, identify gender-specific risk factors, and learn evidence-based strategies for prevention, treatment, and patient education. Emphasis is placed on interdisciplinary collaboration, lifespan oral health promotion, and culturally sensitive care for female patients.
To provide patients with the best adhesive restorative dentistry, we are required to have absolute isolation and a firm understanding of bonding principles. Upon completion of this CE webinar, the student will be able to:
• Understand the importance of rubber dam isolation
• Be familiar with the basics of isolation
• Understand the fundamental principles of bonding

One of the most valuable steps a new dentist can take is finding a mentor—someone who’s been in the field for 25 years or more and has learned through experience, including their own mistakes. A mentor offers the chance to see what lies ahead, helping you avoid getting caught up in the moment and make well-thought-out decisions about the kind of practice you want to build and the investments you’ll need to make. Today, we’re sitting down with Dr. Chris Pescatore, a general dentist with over 30 years of experience. He has been a pioneer in digital dentistry since the early ’90s and has seen it all when it comes to creating aesthetic restorations. As you listen to Dr. Pescatore’s insights, we hope you gain invaluable advice to help guide you as you embark on your own dental career.

Part of the strategy of a successful practice, as our guest points out, is to get the patient to become part of the conversation. This of course helps with case acceptance and patient satisfaction. We'll be talking about the importance of cusp protection in our restorations and why it's so important to consider a crown versus composite restorative. We'll also discuss how the standardization of dental materials within a given practice helps improve efficiency and productivity.
Dr. Derse is a mentor at the Kois Center in Seattle, WA and has lectured internationally on cosmetics, restorative dentistry, aligner therapy, and case presentation and acceptance.
