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
Tue  7/7/26    11:00 PM UTC
CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU
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 with a built-in 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.


Growth without Compromise: Lessons Learned for Merging Practices While Maintaining a Health-centered Focus

This CE webinar is designed to provide dental professionals with practical, experience-based guidance for successfully growing and integrating multiple practices while maintaining a health-centered philosophy of care. Drawing from real-world lessons learned through practice mergers and expansion, the webinar will explore strategies for preserving continuity of patient care, strengthening team culture, and sustaining operational efficiency during periods of growth. Participants will gain insight into common challenges associated with practice integration, including communication barriers, workflow disruptions, and team alignment, along with actionable solutions to address them. The webinar will also examine how effective systems and processes can support profitability and efficiency without compromising clinical excellence or patient-centered outcomes. In addition, attendees will learn how material selection and clinical workflow decisions can influence practice performance by reducing chair time, simplifying inventory management, and enhancing the overall patient experience. Through practical examples and proven approaches, participants will leave with tools to support sustainable growth while preserving the core values that define high-quality, health-focused care.

Freehand composite bonding can be technique-sensitive, time-consuming, and inconsistent, even for experienced clinicians. As patient expectations continue to rise, dentists need a more predictable and efficient approach to delivering high-quality aesthetic results. This CE webinar introduces a smarter workflow for composite bonding using injection techniques. Participants will learn how to transition from freehand artistry to a structured, repeatable system that improves accuracy, efficiency, and confidence. We will cover case selection, smile design principles, matrix fabrication, and the clinical steps required to deliver predictable results. Emphasis will be placed on simplifying the workflow without sacrificing aesthetics, allowing clinicians to achieve consistent outcomes while reducing chair time and stress. Whether you are new to injection composite or looking to refine your technique, this webinar will provide practical strategies you can begin implementing immediately in your practice.


From Chaos to Clusters: 50 Shades of Grey May Be Okay, but 50 Shades of Composite, Really?

In an era where every manufacturer is throwing their hat into the shade simplification ring, how can the pragmatic doctor navigate the waters? From the promise of single shade, omnichromatic entries, to shade reduced options, and perhaps even well designed clustered shade pallets, this webinar is designed to debunk the myths and give attendees the tools to make educated material selection decisions. These decisions can lead to better inventory economics, while simultaneously improving the predictability of esthetic outcomes for patients. In this dynamic CE webinar, Dr. Hakim will share the latest innovations in the category, while also reviewing the basics of adhesive composite delivery to reinforce successful and lasting restorations.

The Value of Being Seen: Elevating Care for People with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities
Presenter: Jeannette Diaz-Olivera, DHSc, MPH, RDHAP, FADHA
Sponsor: VOCO America
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Health inequities persist for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Individuals with developmental disabilities experience poorer oral health and challenges accessing dental care. Historically, the dental curriculum did not require training dental professionals to care for and manage the treatment of persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Providers often report feeling unprepared to care for this population. This CE webinar will evaluate the current barriers to care, identify complex factors contributing to oral health, and equip the dental provider with strategies to improve patient care for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

The stress of day to day practice does not always allow us to introduce new materials into to our daily routines. Fear of failure and extensive learning curves often leave dentists stuck with materials that are not current and/or materials that may not work as well as a modern advancement. In this CE webinar, join us as we explore a new/updated restorative material and how it not only can change the way we practice but also how it benefits our patients.

Guest: Dr. Miles Cone
Dr. Miles Cone is a prosthodontist who shares how bringing a 3D printer into his practice has completely transformed the way he works—making things more efficient, productive, and yes, even more profitable. He talks about how this technology has opened the door to doing things differently, from quickly fabricating models and occlusal guards to whitening trays and provisionals—all in-house, and often the same day. He’ll also share what to look for when choosing a printer, and reveal his personal favorite and why. According to Dr. Cone, 3D printing isn’t just the future—it’s a total game-changer in how we practice dentistry today.

Guest: Amanda Hill, RDH
So how do we elevate our practice and what does elevating our practice do for our career, business and patients. It actually does quite a lot. For one, it helps with employee retention. A recent poll showed that the number one reason why a dental hygienist leaves a dental practice is because the practice is not innovative, it's doing the same ol same ol and they feel they are stuck in a rut, not learning anything new. nor are they trying new techniques and products. Also part of our episode today is talking about incorporating diagnostics into our practice. Instead of rushing through the medical history and moving right to our scaling, root planing and prophies, we should dedicate time to diagnostic testing, getting to the root cause of the problem. As our guest Amanda Hill will explain, diagnostic testing is a game-changer for the practice and not only builds trust between the practice and the patient, but also drives revenue to a whole new level.
