Is your sterilization process as inspection-ready as you think? In this CE webinar, explore 10 common instrument processing and sterilization risks identified in dental practices and learn practical strategies to address gaps in reprocessing, monitoring, documentation, storage and equipment maintenance - helping your team build safer, more consistent processes and be better prepared when an inspector arrives.


Digital Implant Surgery: How 3D Printing changes the Guided Surgery Workflow
Presenter: Dr. Nitish Surathu and Dr. Neeraj Surathu
Sponsor: Rapid Shape
Tue  10/27/26    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT
Tue  10/27/26    11:00 PM UTC
CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU
This CE webinar explores how 3D printing is transforming the digital workflow for guided implant surgery, from treatment planning through surgical guide fabrication and implant placement. Participants will learn how to integrate CBCT and intraoral scan data, evaluate implant planning software, and develop predictable treatment plans using digital technology. The webinar will also cover the design, 3D printing, and post-processing of surgical guides and restorations, with a focus on applying guided surgery protocols to improve implant accuracy, efficiency, and patient outcomes.


From Inspection to Resolution 2026: Real Cases of How Dental Practices Navigated OSHA Investigations

In this one-hour CE webinar, Dr. Karson Carpenter, president of Compliance Training Partners, will review actual OSHA inspection cases that he and his technical team have been involved with in the last 12 months. The webinar will show actual citations and how the inspection progressed from notification of inspection to onsite visit, receipt of fine, and resolution.


Digital Workflows for Predictable Adult Orthodontic-Restorative Treatment Implementing a Digital Ecosystem
Presenter: Dr. Melissa Shotell
Sponsor: ClearCorrect
Thu  10/29/26    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT

CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU
Adult patients are the largest growing population seeking orthodontic treatment. Many adult patients seek clear aligners as an esthetic alternative to traditional bracket and wire treatment. Yet many adult patients present with complex restorative treatment needs that can be complimented by orthodontic treatment for improved clinical outcomes with interdisciplinary treatment plans. Adult patients require a different patient experience and seek convenient and efficient treatment. The course will cover the basics of aligner design, materials, and mechanical advantages to understand the importance of product selection in complex adult treatment plans. The CE webinar will also explore the digital workflow and digital ecosystem for office efficiency and optimal patient experience. After the webinar, the attendee should be able to evaluate and select an aligner system for complex interdisciplinary cases, and evaluate how to implement a digital workflow for enhanced treatment planning and patient experience.


Smarter Smile Design: Align, Whiten, and Restore
Presenter: Dr. Nicholas Garcia
Sponsor: uLab Systems
Mon  11/2/26    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT
Tue  11/3/26    0:00 AM UTC
CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU
In this CE webinar, join Dr. Nicholas Garcia for a practical discussion on integrating clear aligners into everyday esthetic dentistry—particularly for patients considering whitening, veneers, or other cosmetic improvements. Using a scan-first approach, Dr. Garcia will demonstrate how he evaluates tooth position, spacing, and occlusion before developing a treatment plan. Attendees will learn how to determine when to align, when to restore, and when combining treatments may create a more conservative and predictable path to the desired esthetic outcome. The webinar will provide a straightforward framework for recognizing anterior esthetic aligner opportunities, sequencing complementary services, and confidently presenting comprehensive treatment options to patients.

Creating a Pathway to Endodontic Success for the GP
Presenter: Dr. Michael Miyasaki
Sponsor: COLTENE
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)

The goal of this CE webinar is to educate general dentists on the biological and clinical principles that lead to successful non-surgical root canal therapy outcomes.







Overcoming Digital Challenges with Optimal Material Choices
Presenter: Dr. Jeff Horowitz
Sponsor: VOCO America
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
In this CE webinar, participants will be guided through current digital workflows where critical decisions must be made. Analog versus scanned impressions, milling versus printing, and finally materials choices that can enhance outcomes will be discussed. Participants should leave this webinar with a more complete understanding of the decisions necessary for most restorative applications, along with an understanding of some of the materials that will optimize the end result.







Similar But Not the Same: Cementation Considerations and Techniques for Zirconia vs Lithium Disilicate Crowns
Presenter: Dr. Gary Radz
Sponsor: Bisco
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Zirconia and Lithium Disilicate are the 2 most popular current materials for crowns in the US. Although they can looks very similar with their excellent esthetic properties, the materials themselves require different pre-cementation protocols and materials. Understanding the proper way to treat each material before final cementation can effect the long term clinical performance. Additionally, because of the difference in the strength of each material there can be several "best" choices of cements that can be used. This CE webinar is created to discuss and demonstrate the materials, techniques and protocols specific to each material.

Guest: Dr. John Zalesky
Composite dentistry has changed dramatically over the past decade. We've gone from stocking dozens of shades and multiple classes of composites to universal composites, simplified adhesive systems, and new techniques that promise better results with less complexity. But are these advances really changing the way we practice? Is one universal composite enough for most clinical situations? Does composite warming actually improve outcomes? And could something as simple as your curing technique be the difference between a restoration that lasts for years—or one that fails prematurely? Dr. John Zalesky will help us separate the science from the marketing as we discuss today's universal composite restorative materials, the evolution of universal adhesives and selective etching and why one particular universal composite is generating so much attention. If you're looking to simplify your composite restorative workflow without sacrificing quality, you won't want to miss this conversation.

According to Dr. Brian Novy, the application of fluoride varnish is, hands down, the most significant procedure we can do for our patients. But as with any procedure, there’s a right way—and a wrong way—to apply fluoride varnish. Dr. Novy will shed light on common mistakes that can undermine its effectiveness, a phenomenon he calls the "fluoride bomb." We’ll discuss what can go wrong during application, how to avoid these pitfalls, and what steps you can take to ensure your patients receive the full benefits of this essential preventive treatment. Dr. Brian Novy is a practicing dentist in Boston MA. He is President of the National CAMBRA Coalition, faculty at Harvard School of Dental Medicine and Western University of Health Sciences, and consumer representative for the US Food and Drug Administration Dental Products Panel.

Guest: Dr. Marc Geissberger
In this episode, we're talking with Dr. Marc Geissberger, a dentist who has practiced general and cosmetic dentistry for over 30 years. He was Chairman of the Department of Restorative Dentistry for 15 years at University of Pacific Dental School. We'll discuss how composite materials have evolved, what you should look for when evaluating a new composite restorative material, and how universal composites are changing the way many dentists approach direct restorations. We'll address a new universal composite that has attributes that can significantly help clinicians reduce shrinkage, improve diagnostic accuracy and provide the strength, handling and sustained polishability we're looking for in our direct restorative cases. Lots of clinical pearls in this one!
