Oral health for older adults is an increasingly significant challenge in dentistry today. As people age, their risk of developing caries, periodontal disease, and other oral health complications rises. This heightened risk is often exacerbated by systemic health conditions, polypharmacy, and decreased dexterity, which can impact daily hygiene practices. Unlike younger populations, older adults face unique barriers, including complex medical histories, cognitive decline, and notable changes in insurance coverage after retirement. These factors not only affect their access to dental care but also influence how treatments must be planned and delivered. This evidence-based CE webinar equips dental professionals with practical strategies to enhance the quality of care for older adults in dental office settings. Participants will learn to identify the specific caries risk factors associated with aging patients, apply preventive and minimally invasive management strategies, and adjust treatment protocols for medically fragile individuals. The webinar will also address the impact of changing insurance structures after retirement on access to care, as well as how dental teams can navigate these challenges to provide effective and patient-centered outcomes.

Burnout is more than just feeling tired — it’s a serious occupational phenomenon affecting dental professionals at every level. From packed schedules and patient anxiety to perfectionism and lack of autonomy, dentistry is especially vulnerable to chronic stress. This CE webinar helps participants recognize the early signs of burnout, understand the factors that contribute to it, and learn practical, sustainable tools to prevent or recover from burnout — individually and as a team.

Bonding procedures that perform reliably in permanent teeth can be less predictable when applied to primary teeth. Many clinicians experience frustrations such as early sealant loss, marginal breakdown of pediatric restorations, and bonding failures that seem difficult to explain. Differences in enamel structure, dentin composition, and the clinical conditions commonly encountered in pediatric dentistry create unique challenges for achieving durable adhesion. As a result, clinicians often face issues such as reduced sealant retention, restoration failure, and sensitivity to moisture contamination during pediatric bonding procedures.
This CE webinar examines the structural and chemical differences between primary and permanent teeth and how those differences influence adhesive performance. Participants will review the science behind enamel etching, dentin bonding, and hybrid layer formation in primary teeth, along with practical strategies to improve bond reliability in everyday pediatric practice. The webinar will also explore common causes of bonding failure and practical techniques that help clinicians achieve more consistent outcomes. Real-world protocols will be discussed for managing moisture contamination, optimizing etch patterns, and selecting adhesive materials that support reliable bonding in young patients. Attendees will gain practical insights that can improve restoration longevity, enhance sealant retention, and reduce clinical frustration when bonding to primary teeth.

Musculoskeletal pain is nearly universal in dentistry but it doesn’t have to be. In this CE webinar, we’ll break down the top ergonomic mistakes dental clinicians make every day, including forward head posture, shoulder strain, twisting, reaching, and poor patient positioning.
During this CE webinar, you’ll learn how operatory layout and equipment design can either contribute to these patterns or dramatically reduce them. Through real clinical examples, we’ll explore how proper chair positioning, delivery setup, lighting alignment, and movement strategies can support neutral posture and long-term career longevity.

The stress of day to day practice does not always allow us to introduce new materials into to our daily routines. Fear of failure and extensive learning curves often leave dentists stuck with materials that are not current and/or materials that may not work as well as a modern advancement. In this CE webinar, join us as we explore a new/updated restorative material and how it not only can change the way we practice but also how it benefits our patients.
With the yearly changes made to the CDT dental codes it can be challenging for a dental professional on how or advise patients what procedures their insurance carriers will be covered or to help their patient file their own dental claims. This CE webinar will discuss a variety of procedures like desensitizing, dental creams/varnishes and how they can be profitable for a dental practice.
This CE webinar will delve into the benefits of choosing alignment therapy prior to restorative treatment. It will explain in detail the different types and the purpose of attachments in clear aligner therapy, as well as smile architect and successful clincheck treatment planning. The instructor will then give clinical tips for restorative treatment after alignment therapy has been completed.

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.
