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.

In this one-hour CE webinar, students will understand the intricacies of adhesive dentistry, focusing specifically on protocols tailored for the optimal bonding of zirconia and eMax materials. Upon completion of this CE webinar, the student will be equipped with a comprehensive understanding of the principles underlying predictable adhesive dentistry. They will be able to identify the specific challenges and considerations associated with bonding zirconia and eMax, gaining insights into material properties, surface treatments, and adhesive techniques. Additionally, students will become more familiar with the latest advancements and best practices in adhesive dentistry, including adhesive selection, surface preparation, and bonding protocols. Armed with this knowledge, participants will be empowered to implement techniques that ensure durable and aesthetically pleasing restorations, elevating their clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction.
This CE webinar will cover the importance of optimal suction in the dental operatory to improve performance and productivity, reduce downtime, and enhance air quality for both dental personnel and patients. Topics include the utility room components such as central vacuum, compressor, and amalgam separator, as well as product selection considerations and basic equipment maintenance.
As the world of 3D printing continues to explode across the dental landscape, questions abound. Doctors are interested in this new amazing and cutting edge technology, but They need pertinent information on the best way to integrate this technology as well as what to expect when moving to this totally digital in-office workflow. Dr. John Flucke strives to always keep his office on the leading edge of technology and he has spent a great deal of time immersed in the world of digital dentistry and 3D printing. In this CE webinar Dr. Flucke will show you how easy this technology is to integrate and some of the things doctors can create in-office. The creation of many needed appliances is much easier than you may think. Even beginners can create many of the things patients need with minimal training. Learn how to take your office to the ‘digital next level’ by incorporating 3D printing into your everyday office routine. Doctors will understand the basics of 3D printing and design and feel comfortable knowing that they and their teams can work together to create an in-office workflow that is much easier than many believe.

We've all seen the white spot lesions on our patients teeth. By any measure, they're not particularly aesthetic and most patients would love them to disappear. So why is it that for a large majority of patients that are actually visiting their dentist regularly, these lesions persist and essentially detract from their smile. The only logical answer I can come up with is that many dentists are not utilizing something called resin infiltration. It's a simple procedure that is remarkably effective in essentially making white spot lesions disappear. To tell us all about it is our guest Irene Iancu. Irene is a Canadian RRDH and entrepreneur with experience in various specialties like Pediatrics, Orthodontics, and Periodontics, she has combined all these elements in her start-up dental practice in Toronto, Toothlife Studio. Irene is an international speaker, key opinion leader, host of the Tooth or Dare podcast and creates educational content on all social platforms under the handle @toothlife.irene.

For those of us who are doing chairside milling we have a lot more choices in materials than we did several years ago. In fact, there is now a CAD CAM block that actually does not require sintering. Why is this significant? Because it shaves off as much as 25 minutes from the in-office manufacturing process. Today we'll be talking to Dr. Jennifer Bell, a full-time dentist in NC, who is all about high quality dentistry with an emphasis on efficiency. She is big into digital dentistry and has had great success with her now favorite milling block. Today she will be offering all sorts of recommendations that focus on efficient same day dentistry, including 3D Printing.
