The mandate on today’s dental clinician and technician to deliver predictable high-strength and highly aesthetic restorations is continually increasing, however, many of the technique and tools necessary in the treatment planning and execution of these restorations remains nebulous. This CE webinar will illustrate straightforward treatment planning, material selection, and laboratory protocols for achieving uncommon results for successful patient outcomes.

In this CE webinar, Dr. Jean Creasey shares the nuts and bolts of her how own dental practice “prevented it’s way to success”. This webinar reviews why restoration alone is not a cure for caries disease and why focusing on strengthening tooth structure and modifying oral biofilms to favor dental health is key. It also emphasizes that dental caries must be managed as a chronic disease throughout a patients’ lifetime and that motivating patients to change is best achieved when the entire dental team is calibrated and committed to a prevention centered approach.

In dental impressioning, there are so many variables that must be accounted for in order to achieve a great impression every attempt. Nowadays, with the introduction of digital intraoral scanners, this holds true perhaps more than ever. There are many ways to achieve an acceptable outcome, whether the approach be by conventional or digital technique. In this CE webinar, we will discuss materials methods that provide predictable results for both approaches.

Stressors in dentistry have never been higher. Increased cost of doing business, inflation, supply chain issues, and short staffing to name a few. It is so important, now more than ever, that we work efficiently. This CE webinar will review strategies to increase our efficiency in both direct and indirect restorative dentistry in order to keep costs down with out sacrificing quality.

Despite advancing technologies in dental caries and prevention it remains one of the most common oral diseases globally. Dental health care practitioners are challenged to continually evaluate current research and incorporate findings into clinical practice to adequately equip their patients with health promotion and preventive strategies. With a paradigm shift from drill and fill to minimally invasive dentistry, which focuses on conservation of tooth structure, a medical model of disease management needs to be incorporated. The caries management plan for each individual should be based upon reducing caries risk factors and enhancing the protective factors with the additional aid of behavior modification coupled with minimal intervention restorative dentistry, if appropriate. This CE webinar will take a look at the latest evidence-based practical guidelines for caries management along with strategies to incorporate new treatment methods into daily practice.

In this CE webinar, Karyn M. Halpern DMD, MS will discuss the latest advancements in the chairside workflow using hybrid ceramic blocks. The properties and clinical applications of hybrid ceramic blocks will be reviewed. Techniques on how to polish, stain, and glaze will be presented. No prerequisites are required for this CE webinar.
Flowable composite resins have long since been used effectively in preventative and restorative pediatric dentistry. But until now their use has been generally limited to sealants and liners. Recent improvements in mechanical properties and availability of different viscosities have changed how we view and use flowable resins. We now have many different flowables with different properties to choose from. Specifically, variations in viscosity lead to different clinical indications. We can now match appropriate viscosity and delivery to appropriate clinical scenario. As a result, flowable resins have a newly increased versatility and usefulness for different restorative situations. This CE webinar will walk through the advantages of different viscosity flowable resins and their indications for use with your pediatric patients. We will study several different clinical cases and choices of material for most effective and efficient use of our materials to best serve our patients.
Upon completion of this CE webinar, we will cover
• What is a Fiber-reinforced composite (FRC)
• Material properties and mechanical advantages
• How does fiber-reinforcement minimize polymerization shrinkage and stress and residual stress on restored teeth
• Why incremental layering is not the most effective stress reduction method
• The strength and structural integrity of teeth restored with FRCs
• Fiber-reinforced composite direct restoration technique

Dental podcast: Welcome to DentalTalk. I'm Dr. Phil Klein. When it comes to Class 2 restorations, we all, at one time or another, face the bad and the ugly. I'm talking about inadequate contacts, open proximal boxes, sensitivity and insufficient anatomy to name a few. So let's avoid these pitfalls and reduce our personal stress when doing class 2 restorations. To tell us more about it, is our guest Dr. Susan McMahon. She runs one of the largest cosmetic dental practices in Western Pennsylvania. An author and lecturer, Dr. McMahon has devoted her professional career to the pursuit of advanced technologies in cosmetic and minimally invasive dentistry.

Dental podcast: Welcome to DentalTalk. I'm Dr. Phil Klein. Tell any practitioner that they need to "pick up" attachments in a denture and they start to sweat thinking about material flash, lock ins and placement errors. Today we'll be discussing a safe and effective way to perform these procedures while eliminating the risks and problems we just mentioned. Our guest is Dr. Jeff Horowitz, Owner and Founder of Carolina Center for Advanced Dentistry as well as Advanced sleep and TMJ centers in the Myrtle Beach SC area. He is a lecturer and Key Opinion Leader and is the Co-Founder of Dentists IN the Know, a social media group focused on delivering honest "behind the scenes" information to the dental community.

Dental podcast: Welcome to DentalTalk. I'm Dr. Phil Klein. Heating composites in order to create better flowability into nooks and crannies is not new. It's been around for many years. But recently there has been advancements in this area. Now, utilizing Thermoviscous Technology, a new composite has been specifically engineered to be warmed for initial flowability, followed by sculptability. Our guest is Dr. Peter Auster, who spent 10 years in leadership positions in the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry and is the 2022 Chairman of their Professional Education Committee. He is the founder and past-president of the Greater New York Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry and a Dawson Academy Scholar and Catapult Education Speaker who lectures on cosmetic, reconstructive, and comparative product based dentistry.
