Both dental hygienists and dentists play an important role in the early detection of oral cancer, yet there is a critical gap in screening protocols. After performing an oral cancer screening, patients often say, "No one has ever done that before." This CE webinar breaks down the components of a comprehensive visual and tactile, extraoral, and intraoral evaluation, and the signs and symptoms associated with oral and oropharyngeal cancer as an important component in screening. Using Susan's instructional screening videos and case presentations, attendees will learn proper extraoral palpation, the importance of identifying lymphadenopathy, evaluation of the thyroid gland, and the oropharynx. ADA and ADHA oral cancer policies and coding will be reviewed.
A comprehensive oral cancer screening isn't optional. Let's close the gap together, elevate the standard of care in screening, calibrate dental professionals nationwide, and increase early detection. Attendees will leave inspired and with a renewed commitment to performing this life-saving evaluation - every patient, every visit.

Direct resin has become one of the restorative materials of choice in both general and high-end esthetic practices. The explosion of demand by patients for esthetic dental services has led to an array of new dental products and treatments for practitioners to choose from. A new generation of composite resins can be utilized with a simplified protocol to create amazing anterior and posterior restorations that rival the beauty and strength of porcelain.

Zirconia or lithium disilicate? Retentive prep or short clinical crown? Bond it, or just cement it? With more restorative materials and more cement categories than ever, choosing what goes between the tooth and the restoration has become one of the most confusing decisions in everyday dentistry, and getting it wrong shows up later as debonds, sensitivity, and recurrent decay at the margin. In this CE webinar, Dr. Joshua Austin untangles the conundrum with a practical, evidence-based framework for matching the cement to the case. He will cover how restorative material, preparation design, and isolation drive the choice, along with the surface treatment, cleanup, and curing steps that determine whether a restoration lasts. He will also show how a simplified system built around a universal adhesive, a universal resin cement and a fluoride-releasing resin-modified glass ionomer can cover nearly every indirect case with less inventory and less room for error. Attendees will leave with a repeatable decision tree they can use the next morning.

This CE webinar explores the role of lasers in endodontics, with an emphasis on improving root canal disinfection while preserving tooth structure. Participants will review the biological challenges posed by complex canal anatomy and bacterial biofilms, the principles of photothermal and photoacoustic effects, and the role of laser-assisted irrigation alongside conventional instrumentation and irrigation. Drawing on scientific literature and clinical examples, the webinar will discuss laser technology and considerations for case selection, technique, and safety. Clinical observations will be distinguished from published evidence, helping participants critically evaluate the benefits, limitations, and appropriate use of laser-assisted endodontic approaches.

In the past 5 years digital technologies have advanced our clinical treatments and patient experiences. The digital connection in a private practice setting with the connection of laboratories and implant therapies is growing every year. Understanding the “REAL” connection and how to set up your office for efficiency, growth and predictability will be discussed. The new IOS scanners, Photogrammetry, 3D Facial Scanning and Jaw motion softwares are AI enhanced, and the components will help the clinician and patient achieve amazing results...DIGITALLY! The new digital technologies are here and adapting the latest developments is easy and exciting. In this CE webinar, attendees will gain insights on restoring varying types of cases, like Implants Aesthetics and Occlusion. We will demonstrate more predictable & efficient results with the help of exciting developments in the realm of digital dentistry, improving restorative outcomes and patients lives.

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.
What if there was a way to do cosmetic bonding quickly and predictable in a few minutes? Finally, there is! Be one of the first in your area to use this new innovative technique. Take the stress out of anterior restorations and composite smile makeovers.
Not only will you learn something new, but your patients will also benefit greatly from your new skill. With this simplified technique, you will fall in love with making your patients smile.
Health inequities persist for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Individuals with developmental disabilities experience poorer oral health and challenges accessing dental care. Historically, the dental curriculum did not require training dental professionals to care for and manage the treatment of persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Providers often report feeling unprepared to care for this population. This CE webinar will evaluate the current barriers to care, identify complex factors contributing to oral health, and equip the dental provider with strategies to improve patient care for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

In this episode, we're diving into the injection composite technique—a digital workflow that's helping dentists create predictable, lifelike restorations without relying solely on advanced freehand sculpting skills. Dr. Phil Klein sits down with Dr. Mackenzie Kelley, a cosmetic dentist, educator, and adjunct faculty member at Indiana University School of Dentistry. Dr. Kelly explains why this technique has become one of her go-to solutions for anterior composite dentistry, the clinical steps, the materials she trusts for outstanding esthetic outcomes, and how to determine when the injection composite technique is the right choice versus a traditional freehand approach. If you've been avoiding esthetic anterior composite cases because you don't love hand sculpting, this episode could completely change the way you practice direct restorative cosmetic dentistry.
