Early Intervention, Greater Production: A Modern Strategy for Team Buy-In and Growth
Presenter: Dr. Geoff Jackson

This CE webinar explores how shifting from passive monitoring to non-invasive early intervention can transform both patient outcomes and practice performance. As clinicians gain access to advanced diagnostic technologies, the opportunity to identify and treat early enamel lesions—before cavitation—has never been greater. Yet many practices struggle with team alignment, case acceptance, and integrating these protocols into everyday workflows. This webinar outlines a practical, team-centered approach to implementing early intervention strategies that preserve tooth structure through guided hydroxyapatite generation while simultaneously driving measurable production growth. Attendees will learn how to leverage modern detection tools, standardize clinical protocols, and empower the entire dental team—from hygienists to front office—to communicate value effectively and confidently. By connecting clinical excellence with business impact, this course demonstrates how early intervention is not just a treatment philosophy, but a scalable growth strategy. Participants will leave with actionable steps to improve patient trust, increase case acceptance, and create a more proactive, productive practice culture.


Treating Tethered Oral Tissues: Laser Frenectomy Solutions for Pediatric Patients
Presenter: Dr. Jared Poplin

Early intervention for tethered oral tissues (TOTs) can play a significant role in improving a child’s overall health and development. In this CE webinar, Dr. Jared Poplin will examine common conditions associated with tongue-ties and lip-ties, including challenges with breastfeeding, speech development, and oral health. The webinar will also highlight how the 9.3-micron CO2 all-tissue laser supports precise, efficient frenectomy procedures with minimal bleeding, reduced post-operative discomfort, and remarkably rapid healing.


Diagnosis and Infiltration of Smooth Surface Enamel Defects
Presenter: Dr. Ali Salehi
Sponsor: DMG America
Mon  5/18/26    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT
Mon  5/18/26    11:00 PM UTC

This CE webinar explores the diagnosis and minimally invasive management of smooth surface enamel defects, integrating both contemporary diagnostic tools and conservative therapeutic strategies. It addresses the different types of enamel lesions based on their topography and etiology—ranging from initial carious demineralizations to developmental defects such as hypoplasia, fluorosis, and hypomineralization—highlighting how these variations influence clinical decision-making. A key concept discussed is the optical nature of white spot lesions. Early enamel demineralization creates subsurface porosities without surface cavitation, leading to light scattering and the characteristic opaque appearance. These lesions are not due to pigmentation but rather to changes in light diffraction within the enamel structure. The webinar also covers advanced diagnostic approaches, including the benefits of transillumination to better assess lesion depth and extension, improving accuracy in treatment indication. Pre-treatment considerations such as bleaching are presented as a way to harmonize the overall tooth shade and enhance the final esthetic outcome. Central to the discussion is the principle of erosion-infiltration, initially developed for early proximal carious lesions but now widely extended to smooth surface defects. The technique relies on modifying the enamel’s optical properties by infiltrating its porosities with a low-viscosity resin whose refractive index closely matches that of healthy enamel, allowing light to pass through more uniformly and restoring translucency.


Autologous Dentin: A Powerful Yet Overlooked Graft in Dentistry
Presenter: Dr. Isaac Tawil
Sponsor: KometaBio
Tue  5/19/26    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT
Tue  5/19/26    11:00 PM UTC
CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU
Extracted teeth represent a biologically compatible grafting material that is often overlooked in clinical practice. This CE webinar explores the use of autologous dentin as a bone graft, highlighting its biologic properties, including inherent growth factors and structural similarity to bone. The webinar will review clinical applications, with particular attention to compromised patients where enhanced healing and integration are critical. Attendees will also be introduced to practical workflows that allow chair side processing of extracted teeth into graft material, supporting efficient and predictable regenerative outcomes.

Participants will learn how to integrate digital smile design into their workflow to plan esthetic outcomes with intention and accuracy. The webinar will cover case selection, template fabrication, material handling, and step-by-step clinical execution to ensure highly esthetic, minimally invasive results. Dr. Melissa Seibert will also discuss the evolving category of injectable composites - clarifying their indications, advantages, and limitations - to help clinicians make confident material and technique choices that elevate their esthetic dentistry.







Fibre-Reinforced Direct Bridges: New Techniques for Success
Presenter: Dr. Marvin Chacon
Sponsor: VOCO America
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Fibre-reinforced direct bridges (FRDB’s) have shown good performance in clinical applications, capable of overcoming functional masticatory loading with a more biomimetic behavior than rigid metallic or full ceramic prostheses. Its retention relies on adhesive capacity which allows a lower tooth structure removal than conventional alternatives, as minimal or no sound tooth structure preparation is needed on the abutment.


Featured Podcast Episodes
