The rapid evolution of digital technologies - including facial scanning, intraoral photogrammetry (IPG), and 3D printing - has fundamentally changed the way clinicians approach full-arch dental implant rehabilitation. This CE webinar will present practical, real-world case scenarios to demonstrate how digital data - from facial scans to intraoral photogrammetry - can be aligned within a unified workflow. Emphasis will be placed on achieving a seamless digital flow between surgical and prosthetic phases, improving accuracy, efficiency, and communication. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of how to simplify the digital process, leverage emerging technologies, and apply these concepts predictably in daily clinical practice.


50 Shades of Inflammation: the Mouth Body Mind Connection

Want to learn about "permanent lifestyle change" and quench your patients' flames & their disease risk? There is an avalanche of evidence demonstrating the connection between your patients' mouths with their modern lifestyle habits: lack of sleep (saps their discipline), shift work (after 4 night-shifts blood sugar is elevated), poorly managed stress (shows up in every cell of their body), overeating (high fat & processed food boosts inflammation), and sedentary living (did you know "Sitting is the New Smoking?"). And it's bi-directional; the oral environment has far reaching effects on the rest of the body. Patients appreciate the dental health professional who sees the bigger picture in the body, mind and mouth and see its interconnectedness. Stop the fiery cascade with specific dental & lifestyle solutions guaranteed to change your patients' health destiny. This fact filled and inspirational CE webinar is a "call to arms" against "hot spots" of inflammation - "let's douse the flames!"


Small Footprint, Big Impact: Same-Day Restorations with Nano-Sized Chairside 3D Printing
Presenter: Dr. Michael Erdos
Sponsor: Shining 3D
Tue  7/7/26    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT

The digital restorative workflow has matured to the point where same-visit crowns, inlays, and onlays are now reliable, strong, and easy to implement. A new generation of compact chairside printers brings fast, chairside-friendly printing into a small footprint that fits comfortably next to a curing light in any dental operatory. Paired with an integrated ecosystem - intraoral scanning, AI-driven design, and streamlined print preparation - these systems make it realistic for a GP to scan, design, print, and deliver a definitive restoration in a single appointment. This one-hour CE webinar will walk attendees through the complete chairside digital workflow, from capturing the initial intraoral scan to seating the final restoration. We will review clinical indications best suited for in-office printing - single-unit crowns, inlays, and onlays - and demonstrate how AI-assisted design and intuitive print setup dramatically reduce the traditional learning curve associated with chairside 3D printing. The goal is for every attendee to leave with a clear, practical understanding of how an in-office printer can be integrated into their practice to save chair time, reduce lab dependency, and deliver predictable same-day results.

Smart Materials, Smarter Dentistry: Unlocking the Power of Glass Restoratives
Presenter: Dr. Jeanette MacLean
Sponsor: GC America
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Take your patient care to the next level by incorporating materials that do more than just ‘fill’ or ‘seal’ teeth. Hydrophilic, bulk-fill, biomimetic, desensitizing, remineralizing. The chemical and physical properties of glass ionomer restoratives make them an ideal dental material choice. For clinicians that are either new to glass restoratives or looking to expand their use of these materials, the wide array of products can sometimes create confusion. Dr. MacLean will use case studies to demonstrate how she utilizes different materials to achieve clinical success. Learn how glass ionomer cement sealants can do more than just provide a physical barrier from plaque on pits and fissures, they are hydrophilic, can be placed on partially erupted molars, and act as a fluoride reservoir that helps to prevent caries and enhance remineralization. Glass hybrid restoratives help to reduce post-op sensitivity, reduce recurrent caries, improve outcomes, and have enhanced physical properties for long-lasting durability and esthetics. Dental materials are evolving and so should you!







Fundamentals of Clean Water and Air Delivery in Clinical Dental Settings
Presenter: Dr. Marie Fluent
Sponsor: Air Techniques
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Dental utility rooms play a vital role in maintaining infection control standards. The air compressor generates air for handpieces in dental procedures, while the dental unit provides water for general dental procedures. Meanwhile, the high-volume evacuation and central vacuum removes water, aerosols, airborne pathogens and particulates from the operatory field, and aerosols from the operatory. This CE webinar will address the “heart and lungs” of the dental clinic (compressor and vacuum) and how to best ensure that clean hygienic air and clean water is delivered and effectively removed during dental care.

One of the most valuable steps a new dentist can take is finding a mentor—someone who’s been in the field for 25 years or more and has learned through experience, including their own mistakes. A mentor offers the chance to see what lies ahead, helping you avoid getting caught up in the moment and make well-thought-out decisions about the kind of practice you want to build and the investments you’ll need to make. Today, we’re sitting down with Dr. Chris Pescatore, a general dentist with over 30 years of experience. He has been a pioneer in digital dentistry since the early ’90s and has seen it all when it comes to creating aesthetic restorations. As you listen to Dr. Pescatore’s insights, we hope you gain invaluable advice to help guide you as you embark on your own dental career.
