In this one-hour CE webinar, students will understand the intricacies of adhesive dentistry, focusing specifically on protocols tailored for the optimal bonding of zirconia and eMax materials. Upon completion of this CE webinar, the student will be equipped with a comprehensive understanding of the principles underlying predictable adhesive dentistry. They will be able to identify the specific challenges and considerations associated with bonding zirconia and eMax, gaining insights into material properties, surface treatments, and adhesive techniques. Additionally, students will become more familiar with the latest advancements and best practices in adhesive dentistry, including adhesive selection, surface preparation, and bonding protocols. Armed with this knowledge, participants will be empowered to implement techniques that ensure durable and aesthetically pleasing restorations, elevating their clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction.

We know that when we perform direct bonding procedures, our adhesives and restorative materials can cause proteolytic responses in the dentin structure, which may ultimately lead to failure at the interface. However, we tend to overlook the possibility of similar outcomes with our resin cements. As we create the same hybridization of the dentin, there is a potential for failure due to bacterial contamination, insufficient infiltration, and the acidity of our resin cement. This CE webinar aims to explore a cementation process that can significantly improve the success of this critical restorative procedure.

Delivering optimal posterior composites often pose pain points for even the most technically skilled practitioner. Challenges with isolation, placement and layering, predictable curing, contour and contacts, and final finish/polish and esthetics, sometimes lead to underwhelming outcomes. This CE webinar is designed to provide updates on materials and techniques, which when integrated, can resolve many of the pain points facing doctors, and lead to better outcomes, happier patients, and greater satisfaction in practice.

One of the most popular restorative options available today for patients is the use of full-contoured milled zirconia. Advances in new multilayered zirconia blocks and sintering technology, combined with the ability to super-fast mill zirconia restorations, affords the opportunity to provide single-visit zirconia restorations for our patients in a fast and efficient manner. Zirconia restorations can be predictably and efficiently milled, sintered, polished, and delivered in as little as an hour. In this CE webinar, Karyn M. Halpern DMD, MS will discuss the chairside workflow using Zirconia. The properties and clinical applications of the latest zirconia blocks will be reviewed. Techniques on how to pre-polish, polish after sintering, and stain and glaze will be presented.

For most tooth-conserving clinicians and patients, the idea of cutting adjacent teeth for a fixed bridge is unimaginable, considering the collateral damage and possible side effects. Also, for most patients, a fixed implant is vastly more desirable than a removable partial denture. Nevertheless, after 30 years of using dental implants, astute professionals have learned that, in many cases, dental implants are neither less invasive nor free of problems. Due to advances in adhesives and a better understanding on how to use them, better porcelains and manufacturing techniques are making the next generation of bonded bridges predictable. In this CE webinar, Dr. Ruiz will share a variety of prep designs and uses, as well as step-by-step techniques for temporizing and bonding and the latest research on successful zirconia and porcelain adhesion techniques.
Advancements in technology and materials have shifted the field of dentistry. As a result, providers opt to rely more on chemical adhesion over mechanical retention with both their direct and indirect restorations. This paradigm shift of preparation design to a more conservative approach is dependent on an equal shift in our bonding protocols. The road to reliability in adhesive dentistry is paved through consistency and reliance on adhering to science. Developing systems and protocols and sticking to them ensures long term stability with cosmetic restorations. Which in turn results in happy patients with reliable outcomes. But how does one develop the proper systems and protocols? In this CE webinar, providers will learn how to simplify yet optimize their isolation techniques and bonding protocols to achieve more predictable long-term success with both their direct and indirect restorative outcomes.
During this CE webinar, we will
• implement comprehensive treatment planning and execution through data collection and restorative approaches
• build lab communication and smile design through photography and diagnostic records
• implement advances in dental materials, bonding protocols and restorative solutions for best outcomes

Even though millions of patients have successfully been treated with dental implants some of us are still not sure if it's okay to probe an implant and what the proper protocol is for implant maintenance. To help us answer some of these questions is our guest Jessica Woods. Jessica is a RDH with a masters in public health. She has spent the last decade as a clinician, speaker, author, mentor, and public health advocate. She is also a past President of the Nevada Dental Hygienists’ Association (NDHA), recognized as an Oral Health Champion, and the recipient of the Nevada Dental Hygienist of the Year Award for advocacy efforts in expanding opportunities for dental hygienists.

So there are quite a few materials to choose from these days when it comes to our indirect restorations. Today we'll be talking about the popular ones and we'll also be discussing how we get them to stay on the tooth, meaning, do we go adhesive or cohesive and what are some of the materials we should be considering. To tell us all about is our guest Dr. Alex Vasserman, a practicing dentist in NYC.

Dental podcast: Welcome to DentalTalk. I'm Dr. Phil Klein. Today we'll be discussing the benefits of using a fully-crystallized lithium disilicate CAD/CAM block to create durable and highly-esthetic indirect restorations. This material provides high strength without the need to fire, and apparently saves the clinician up to 40% of the time required versus comparable systems. Our guest is Dr. Paresh Shah, who maintains a private practice in Winnipeg, Canada with a focus on implant, cosmetic and interdisciplinary care. He is currently an instructor at the University of Manitoba Dental School in the department of fixed prosthodontics.
