Attachments play a critical role in aligner biomechanics, yet the method used to create and deliver attachments can significantly influence clinical efficiency, predictability, and esthetic outcomes. This CE webinar explores the differences between traditional attachment creation methods and custom attachment systems delivered via pre-fabricated trays. Participants will examine common challenges associated with conventional attachment workflows—such as technique sensitivity, variability in attachment shape, excess composite cleanup, and inconsistent engagement—and compare them with newer custom approaches designed to improve consistency and streamline clinical procedures. Practical considerations related to treatment planning, attachment placement, and bonding best practices will be discussed to help clinicians make informed decisions when selecting an attachment strategy for aligner therapy.

Oral health for older adults is an increasingly significant challenge in dentistry today. As people age, their risk of developing caries, periodontal disease, and other oral health complications rises. This heightened risk is often exacerbated by systemic health conditions, polypharmacy, and decreased dexterity, which can impact daily hygiene practices. Unlike younger populations, older adults face unique barriers, including complex medical histories, cognitive decline, and notable changes in insurance coverage after retirement. These factors not only affect their access to dental care but also influence how treatments must be planned and delivered. This evidence-based CE webinar equips dental professionals with practical strategies to enhance the quality of care for older adults in dental office settings. Participants will learn to identify the specific caries risk factors associated with aging patients, apply preventive and minimally invasive management strategies, and adjust treatment protocols for medically fragile individuals. The webinar will also address the impact of changing insurance structures after retirement on access to care, as well as how dental teams can navigate these challenges to provide effective and patient-centered outcomes.

Burnout is more than just feeling tired — it’s a serious occupational phenomenon affecting dental professionals at every level. From packed schedules and patient anxiety to perfectionism and lack of autonomy, dentistry is especially vulnerable to chronic stress. This CE webinar helps participants recognize the early signs of burnout, understand the factors that contribute to it, and learn practical, sustainable tools to prevent or recover from burnout — individually and as a team.

This CE webinar will provide oral health care providers with information regarding oral cancer. Potentially malignant conditions, particularly leukoplakia, will be discussed. Prevention of the disease is primarily the job of oral health care professionals; therefore, a focus will be made on preventing oral squamous cell carcinoma.

Bonding procedures that perform reliably in permanent teeth can be less predictable when applied to primary teeth. Many clinicians experience frustrations such as early sealant loss, marginal breakdown of pediatric restorations, and bonding failures that seem difficult to explain. Differences in enamel structure, dentin composition, and the clinical conditions commonly encountered in pediatric dentistry create unique challenges for achieving durable adhesion. As a result, clinicians often face issues such as reduced sealant retention, restoration failure, and sensitivity to moisture contamination during pediatric bonding procedures.
This CE webinar examines the structural and chemical differences between primary and permanent teeth and how those differences influence adhesive performance. Participants will review the science behind enamel etching, dentin bonding, and hybrid layer formation in primary teeth, along with practical strategies to improve bond reliability in everyday pediatric practice. The webinar will also explore common causes of bonding failure and practical techniques that help clinicians achieve more consistent outcomes. Real-world protocols will be discussed for managing moisture contamination, optimizing etch patterns, and selecting adhesive materials that support reliable bonding in young patients. Attendees will gain practical insights that can improve restoration longevity, enhance sealant retention, and reduce clinical frustration when bonding to primary teeth.

If we can get abs in 7 minutes why can't we beat that time for a crown prep!? Our patients love us for the relationships we build with them, not for our crown margins. But what if we can deliver precise and EFFICIENT crown preps, conserve tooth structure, and give them a restoration that can last decades? Ultimately, they will love that too!
Dentistry is continually changing, and that includes oral cancers. Current evidence reveals that the Human Papillomavirus/HPV now causes more oropharyngeal cancer than cervical cancer and is responsible for approximately 80% of oropharyngeal cancers. It’s essential that dental professionals share important information about HPV and oropharyngeal cancer, not only with their patients but also with their family and friends. In this content rich CE webinar, join oral cancer coach Susan Cotten BS, RDH, OMT, we discuss HPV, the signs and symptoms associated with oropharyngeal cancer, and the critical role a comprehensive screening has in early detection. Attendees will leave inspired, ready to share information about HPV and give their dental team and patients something to talk about to increase early detection and save lives!
Deep Marginal Elevations (DME) can be very technique sensitive. Often times if the curing light cannot reach the restorative material due to sheer depth, we must come up with an alternative solution. Dual cured restorative materials have answered that puzzle. Dual cured materials are often misunderstood in the daily routine of a restorative dentist. This is mainly due to the clinician’s high comfort level with traditional light cured composite resins as their “go-to” material. During this CE webinar, I will explain the different mechanics between light cured versus dual cured materials and the role each has on stresses created and the impact on bonding. Then I will give a step by step systematic approach in using a dual cured material to obtain predictable and repeatable results when performing DME procedures. Finally, I will show clinical examples of Deep Marginal Elevations with dual cured materials and tips and tricks help obtain the desired result.

When it comes to choosing the right material for your veneer or crown it can get a little tricky. Lately, it's been a contest between zirconia and lithium disilicate. There are definite clinical indications for each. And the other question is do we bond or use traditional cements. To give his perspective on all this is our guest is Dr. Todd Snyder. Dr Snyder is a popular speaker on Viva Learning.com, a cosmetic dentist, international author, lecturer and consultant to dental companies. He hosts a weekly podcast, Delusional: Winning the Weekly War of Dentistry. You can reach Dr. Snyder at: www.Legion.Dentist.
