This clinical, workflow-focused CE webinar walks through how CBCT is integrated into everyday implant dentistry - from diagnosis and case selection to virtual planning and guided placement. Attendees will see how cone beam data is used to evaluate anatomy, assess risk, and determine restorative-driven implant positioning. The webinar will feature a "scan to plan" demonstration: opening implant planning software, reviewing a CBCT scan, and virtually placing an implant in real time, with discussion of key landmarks, safety zones, and restorative considerations, including guide fabrication. Guided workflows will be covered in detail, including when to place freehand vs. guided, how guides are designed, and the steps involved in guide fabrication - whether produced in-house or through a lab/third-party service.

Series: VOCO America CE Credits: 0.75
Guest: Dr. Brian Novy
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.
