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.

We are all familiar with fluoride varnish but in today's environment of fluoride hesitancy, misinformation, and marketing noise, it's easy to lose sight of the science that makes it so effective. To continue delivering the highest standard of preventive care, clinicians need a clear understanding of what actually happens after varnish is applied and why those mechanisms matter clinically. This CE webinar takes a closer look at the science behind fluoride varnish, including fluoride uptake, fluorapatite formation, and the role prolonged contact time plays in long-term enamel protection. We'll also explore how varnish formulations behave on the tooth surface and what clinicians should consider when selecting a varnish for their patients.

Cementation is the final, decisive step that determines whether an otherwise excellent indirect restoration succeeds or fails, yet it's often where protocols become inconsistent, rushed, or based on habit rather than the specific material in hand. With the range of restorative materials in use today (zirconia, lithium disilicate and other glass-ceramics), no single cement or surface-treatment protocol applies to every case. This CE webinar takes a substrate-driven approach: matching the cement category and preparation steps to the restorative material, the clinical situation, and the amount of retention available.
Through a step-by-step walkthrough of the cementation workflow, this CE webinar covers cement selection, intaglio surface treatment, the role of primers and silane coupling agents, isolation and contamination control, try-in and cleaning, seating, and finishing. The goal is to give clinicians a clear decision framework they can apply chairside to improve predictability, reduce post-operative sensitivity and debonding, and streamline what is often an unnecessarily complicated part of restorative dentistry.

This CE webinar simplifies sensitivity management through a practical, real-world approach designed for the entire clinical team. Participants will learn how to identify different types of sensitivity using a simplified clinical decision tree and understand how to match the right products and protocols to specific patient needs. The webinar will also review proper application techniques for commonly used desensitizing materials, evidence-based in-office therapies, and at-home recommendations that improve patient comfort and long-term outcomes.
Attendees will leave with practical strategies they can immediately implement to improve patient education, reduce post-operative discomfort, and create more predictable sensitivity management protocols within their practice.

Dental providers are often unsure how to leverage the hygiene department and grow the business. There’s never been a better time to revolutionize this approach! Tiffany Wuebben, RDH shares systematic methods that combat today's dental practice challenges, support patient health, and significantly improve career satisfaction and the financial success of the practice.
In this CE webinar, we will engage in a collaborative approach to developing the mission/vision and patient care protocols for the hygiene-driven practice. We'll also discuss a method to revolutionize your hygiene schedule with a 100% reappointment rate. Next, we'll explore the steps to increase capacity through patient advocacy, recall, reactivation, reviews and better patient-practice relationships. We will also help you to recognize adjunct procedures that boost patient care and identify empowering practice strategies that transform the hygienist into a true “Hygienepreneur.” Finally, we'll highlight the proactive steps that professionals can take to build a thriving “hygiene practice within a practice" and develop the knowledge and skills to build a strong hygiene department leading to better clinical outcomes, greater case acceptance, all while maximizing the practice potential.
As the demand for individualized and holistic oral care continues to grow, dental professionals must be prepared to address diverse patient preferences and questions surrounding fluoride. This engaging, evidence-based CE webinar explores the science behind remineralization and compares the efficacy of fluoride with emerging alternatives like calcium phosphate technologies, hydroxyapatite, and xylitol. Attendees will gain practical strategies to tailor care based on age, health status, caries risk, and patient concerns—while reinforcing the role of prevention in enamel health.
This practical, case-based CE webinar provides an in-depth look at how to successfully implement resin infiltration in your practice. We’ll discuss lesion assessment, effective techniques, the role of pre-whitening in esthetic results, and what sets resin infiltration apart from traditional approaches. You’ll learn from real clinical cases, including both successes and failures, to refine your approach and optimize patient outcomes. This webinar will provide actionable insights to elevate your confidence and results.

On today’s episode, we’re talking with an inspiring young dentist whose story is nothing short of amazing. Meet Dr. Luis Abrahante—he came to the U.S. from Cuba at just 18 years old, not knowing a word of English. Fast forward to age 31, and he’s already paid off his dental school loans, bought his own practice, and turned it into a fully digital, high-end aesthetic dentistry hub. He shares with us how he did it along with his favorite dental materials.

Today we’re talking about direct restorative materials that can truly change the course of your patients’ dental health — and no, not just composite, but glass ionomer and resin-modified glass ionomer. Used strategically, these materials can help patients avoid a lifetime of fillings, crowns, and repeat dental work. And adopting this conservative approach doesn’t mean sacrificing revenue — in fact, building a practice focused on preserving healthy tooth structure attracts patients who value care that’s truly in their best interest. Joining us is Dr. Brian Nový, a leading cariologist at Virginia Commonwealth University with faculty appointments at Harvard and Western University, and a private practice owner in Salem, Massachusetts. He’ll explain how glass ionomer and RMGI bond to teeth, their clinical applications, address concerns about strength and aesthetics, and show how they can transform long-term patient outcomes.

Our guest is Dr. Foroud Hakim. He has maintained a private dental practice for over 30 years, is a sought after key opinion leader and speaker and is a highly respected consultant for new product evaluation and development.
