Why do some patients maintain excellent home care habits while others struggle to stay consistent? This webinar explores the behavioral science behind oral health compliance, examining how patient preferences, habits, and reward systems influence daily home care routines. Participants will gain insight into the common reasons flossing and other preventive behaviors break down over time and learn practical strategies for guiding patients toward lasting change.
Through a behavior-based approach, attendees will discover how to improve patient engagement, strengthen recommendations, and select tools that support long-term success. By understanding what truly motivates patients, dental professionals can help transform home care from an occasional intention into a sustainable preventive habit.

This CE webinar explores the evolution of dentistry from a reactive, treatment-focused model to a proactive, patient-centered approach. Emphasizing minimally invasive and non-invasive dentistry, it highlights the importance of prevention, early intervention, and long-term health outcomes. Participants will gain insight into how oral health is intrinsically linked to systemic health and overall well-being. The session will also address the importance of viewing patients holistically—considering their medical history, lifestyle, behaviors, and individual risk factors—to deliver personalized, evidence-based care. By focusing on the “patient promise,” this webinar underscores the ethical and professional responsibility to empower patients, foster trust, and promote sustainable oral health through education, prevention, and collaboration.

Composite dentistry has come a long way - from macrofills to nanofills to today’s nanohybrids and universal systems that aim to combine strength, esthetics, and efficiency. In this CE webinar, Dr. Luis Abrahante, DMD, shares his clinical perspective on the evolution of restorative materials and how they’ve shaped the modern restorative workflow. Attendees will explore foundational concepts such as C-Factor, shrinkage stress, and how advancements in filler technology and resin matrix design are influencing both technique and long-term outcomes.
This webinar will provide a practical, high-yield breakdown of what clinicians should consider when selecting a universal composite - from handling to polish retention to marginal integrity - and how newer materials are helping streamline procedures while elevating results. Whether layering an anterior case or restoring a posterior load-bearing tooth, you'll gain strategies that are grounded in everyday dentistry and adaptable across different case types.
Are you feeling overwhelmed by the pressure to adopt expensive digital systems that pull you away from what you love most - patient care? You're not alone. Digital dentistry has transformed our profession, bringing incredible innovations like 2D/3D smile simulations, digital wax-ups, and virtual preparation designs. These tools promise precision, efficiency, and better patient engagement. But here's the problem: the rapid growth of digital technology can feel overwhelming. Many clinicians are being pressured to invest in expensive systems or take on complex lab responsibilities that steal precious time from the chair.
What if there was a simpler way? Introducing Digital Dental Sculptor - Dr. Chris Pescatore's revolutionary approach that empowers you to implement modern digital workflows without the need for a full in-house lab.

Today, we’re tackling a question every restorative dentist has asked at some point: can one composite really do it all? For decades, we’ve accepted tradeoffs—great polish but limited strength, strong posterior composites with compromised esthetics. But composite technology has come a long way. According to our guest, Dr Susan McMahon, we’ve reached a point where a single universal composite can handle virtually every direct restorative case—and on top of that deliver stellar results. So if you’re looking to simplify your restorative workflow without compromising outcomes, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

Today we’ll explore why direct composite procedures are quickly becoming a preferred alternative to traditional indirect restorations—and how you can use hybrid techniques like deep margin elevation and model-based composite crowns to deliver exceptional results without prepping away valuable tooth structure or sending cases to the lab. Joining us are two experienced clinicians, Dr Lauren Rainey and Dr Mauricio Watanabe. They will share how the use of highly filled nanocomposite materials in their techniques are transforming the way they restore teeth—and why patients are loving the results.

In today’s episode, we’re exploring the transformative role technology plays in elevating the patient experience—helping create more meaningful interactions, better outcomes, and stronger trust in the care being delivered. When dental hygienists actively engage with cutting-edge technology and the clinical tools that come with it, they not only improve patient education, case acceptance, and compliance, but also help streamline insurance claim approvals and enhance overall clinical efficiency. In doing so, many hygienists gain a renewed perspective on their profession—often leading to greater career fulfillment and satisfaction.
