A New Era in Conservative Esthetic and Adhesive Dentistry
Presenter: Dr. Michael DiTolla CE Supporter: Ivoclar
This CE webinar will examine how technology has made it possible for clinicians to turn any prepped veneer case into a no-prep case, making our treatment much more conservative, and more acceptable to the patient. With today’s high-strength ceramics and adhesive cementation protocols, veneers can be made as thin as 0.3mm, making esthetic no-prep veneers possible, if the teeth are in the correct position and you're utilizing an esthetic, adhesive cement. No-prep veneers are more difficult to seat than prepped veneers or crowns, and a live demonstration will show a seating technique to mitigate those difficulties and the proper cementation protocol to create lasting, esthetic restorations.

The most used materials in today’s general practice are burs, bonding agents, and composites for direct restorations. The evolution of this group of materials, in particular, is amazing. Today’s light cure resins are light years ahead of the materials that we thought were great 20 years ago. The evolution of materials includes base or lining materials when the proximity to the pulp requires some form of pulpal protection. Calcium has been proven to be a critical adjunct to the armamentarium of all general dentists performing routine decay excavation and tooth restoration. This CE webinar is designed for the busy dentist who wants to stay current with the available materials and concepts of efficient placement of tooth-colored restorations. We will discuss what matters most in pulpal protection material selection, depending upon location and occlusal load put on the restoration. Reduction and elimination of post-operative sensitivity will be addressed.
What if preventative care was viewed as a calibrated system that elevated team performance and drove measurable growth? This CE webinar explores how dental teams can use structured prevention tools to align around a shared standard of care, improve patient outcomes, and track the business impact of their hygiene department. Attendees will examine how self-assessments, risk evaluations, and communication tools create consistency across providers, leading to stronger documentation, better case acceptance, and elevated KPIs. The CE webinar will also touch on the impact of prevention on key performance indicators (KPIs), including hygiene production, case acceptance, and patient retention. Whether you’re a hygienist, practice owner, or clinical lead, this course will provide practical strategies to turn prevention into profitability—rooted in individualized patient care. Attendees will leave with actionable strategies to strengthen their role as a prevention specialist by enhancing their skills in early risk-identification, communicating findings effectively, and incorporating streamlined tools while boosting clinical efficiency.
Current economic trends show flat reimbursements, while all of our costs rise. In order to remain profitable, dentists must work more efficiently. Fortunately, we have advances in direct restorative and adhesive dentistry that can allow for working faster and smarter while having great clinical success. This CE webinar will examine the fundamentals of working efficiently and effectively with today's high output curing lights, universal adhesives and bulk fill restorative materials. We will also examine placement techniques that facilitate excellent restorative outcomes.

Dental materials have evolved alongside CAD/CAM technology at a relatively rapid pace. Understanding the fundamental nature and behavior of dental ceramics and cements is an integral part of the decision-making process in restorative dentistry. The correct selection of materials and understanding the limitations of each dental material will help improve clinical success. This CE webinar provides a comprehensive classification of indirect restorative materials and their clinical applications, with the goal of equipping clinicians with the necessary knowledge to evaluate and correctly apply emerging materials.
Traditional diagnostics involved doing a clinical exam, periodontal exam, and examining a full set of radiographs. As technology continues to innovate the dental operatory, the dentist today is faced with a multitude of state-of-the-art options to assist in arriving at that ideal diagnosis. In this CE webinar, join us as we examine the options available to us today, look at what's coming in the near future, and learn how to incorporate these new technologies into our diagnostic landscape.
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.
Clear aligners provide an esthetic and functional orthodontic solution for patients of all ages, eliminating the need for brackets, wires, or bands. To ensure successful outcomes, properly placed attachments play a crucial role in guiding tooth movement and aligner retention. This CE webinar will equip participants with expert techniques to streamline attachment bonding, troubleshooting, and removal—optimizing the clear aligner experience for both clinicians and patients.
As adhesives and cements continue to evolve, change, and improve, it becomes more difficult for restorative dentists to keep up with the latest advances. With increasingly higher patient expectations for long term clinical success, it is important that dentists have an understanding of these materials in order to make sound decisions on what to use when and why. This CE webinar will discuss the different generations of adhesives and categories of cements including those with bioactive properties. Clinical cases will be shown to demonstrate the use of these adhesives and cements including the proper protocols that must be followed.
