The anatomy of the maxilla and the mandible can affect the efficacy of local anesthetics and their ease of delivery. As well, variations in nerve distribution of both the maxillary and mandibular nerves can make local anesthetic success unpredictable and ineffective. This CE webinar will discuss both nerve and bone anatomy and how they can change the efficacy and ease of delivery of a local anesthetic. A review of the maxillary nerve, the mandibular nerve, the mandible and the maxilla will be discussed. Various injection techniques and local anesthetic products will be reviewed considering this nerve and bone anatomy.

Through real-world case studies, evidence-based strategies, and integrative thinking, this webinar challenges the traditional care model and equips clinicians to become advocates for total patient wellness. Participants will also learn how to educate and empower patients to take an active role in their own health journeys—fostering trust, engagement, and long-term compliance.

Endodontically Treated Teeth in the Esthetic Zone
Presenter: Dr. Priya Tirumalasetty
Sponsor: VOCO America
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Managing cosmetic cases involving endodontically treated teeth can be challenging. Loss of tooth structure following trauma or caries removal along with endodontic treatment can compromise the strength and appearance of an anterior tooth. This CE webinar will review key points to obtaining an esthetic result while observing minimally invasive protocols.







Innovative Biomimetic Approaches to Injectable Composite
Presenter: Dr. Nader Yermian
Sponsor: GC America
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Composite resin injectables are highly versatile materials that can be used in numerous scenarios to enhance cosmetic dental practices in a minimally invasive manner, while also facilitating everyday general dentistry. Mastery of composite dentistry, understanding proper adhesive protocols, and establishing effective isolation techniques are crucial steps toward gaining confidence in the functional outcomes of these restorations. In this CE webinar, our goal is to educate participants on how to confidently place predictable composite injectable restorations in both the esthetic zone and posterior teeth. We will cover various case types, including the increasingly popular fiber injectable composites used for build-up procedures. Additionally, we will provide an overview of the cementation protocols for indirect porcelain restorations using injectable materials.







Mind and Mouth: Bridging the Gap Between Mental Health and Oral Care
Presenter: Sonya Dunbar, RDH
Sponsor: VOCO America
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
This CE webinar explores the importance of integrating mental health considerations into dental care strategies, focusing on patient-centered approaches to improve outcomes. Key aspects covered include understanding the oral health implications of psychiatric medications, the role of oral health professionals in recognizing signs of mental illness, and the need for tailored dental care plans to accommodate the specific needs of this population. Additionally, preventive strategies, such as establishing oral health routines, regular dental visits, and collaboration between mental health providers and dental professionals, are discussed to enhance care and reduce the long-term risks of dental diseases for those living with mental illness. By fostering a holistic approach to care that addresses both mental and oral health, dental professionals can play a pivotal role in improving the overall well-being of individuals suffering from mental illness. The webinar concludes with recommendations for further research and education to bridge gaps in dental care for this vulnerable population.


Featured Podcast Episodes
Series: VOCO America CE Credits: 0.5
Guest: Dr. Jennifer Derse
Part of the strategy of a successful practice, as our guest points out, is to get the patient to become part of the conversation. This of course helps with case acceptance and patient satisfaction. We'll be talking about the importance of cusp protection in our restorations and why it's so important to consider a crown versus composite restorative. We'll also discuss how the standardization of dental materials within a given practice helps improve efficiency and productivity.
Dr. Derse is a mentor at the Kois Center in Seattle, WA and has lectured internationally on cosmetics, restorative dentistry, aligner therapy, and case presentation and acceptance.

Guest: Dr. Susan McMahon
Do we really need a 3D Printer in our practice? Is it worth the money and time to learn how to use it? Or is this just another gadget that my rep is trying to sell me? Or is there something much bigger that I'm missing? Let's talk to someone who has gone through all the decision making on this and can speak first hand. Our guest is Dr. Susan McMahon, She is a highly respected clinician, speaker and dental practice owner, in Pittsburgh PA. She has devoted her professional career to the pursuit of advanced technologies in cosmetic and minimally invasive dentistry.

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.
