The hygiene department plays a major role in the health of a practice, some may even say it is the heart of a dental practice. Knowing and improving your hygiene department vital signs can be critical to overall practice success. Hygienists are in unique positions, typically having the most one-on-one contact with the patients. They are typically first in line to present the benefits of preventive, restorative or aesthetic dentistry, providing suggestions and assisting with the decision process, setting the stage for case acceptance. Besides the direct patient care and helping patients understand the best treatment for their wants or conditions, there is also the business side of the profession – what does hygiene contribute to the financial success of the practice? A hygienist who understands the value of their position, the hygiene vital signs and thus the business side of their department can then be prepared for discussions with their employer regarding incorporation of new technology or even wage increases. This CE webinar will provide the participant with the tools and techniques to identify the vital signs of a health hygiene department, show how a successful hygienist can help improve the health of the practice, the health of the patients and promote the value they bring to the table.

In this CE webinar, we will review digital and analog shading techniques for direct and indirect restorations. The need to blend as well as maximize bond strength drives modifications in both preparation approach and material depending on the intra-arch and intra-tooth position and size. Controlling tooth position especially when balancing spaces with pre-prosthetic orthodontics is critical, especially when a maxillary lateral incisor is involved.

Did you know nearly all cavities are preventable? Kerry will show you how implementing CAMBRA (Caries Management by Risk Assessment) can shift the focus in your practice from restorative surgical procedures to risk assessment and treatment of the biofilm and bacteria. Our profession needs to focus on the cause of the problem and identify treatment solutions to control, remineralize and repair caries. We need to recognize caries risk factors and offer risk management strategies. In this CE webinar, learn about tools, products and technology that can help your patients, as well as enhance your assessment skills. Kerry will show you how to add a caries management program into a modern dental practice.

Zirconia restorations are some of the most durable all ceramic materials available for tooth colored restorations. However, there are many questions as to how to properly clean, adhere and or cement them. This CE webinar will help to eliminate many of the common questions and frustrations with delivering zirconia restorations.
Given the current state of health care, it has never been more important for dentists to increase efficiency and reduce overhead. One simple way to achieve this is, is by streamlining inventory to the most reliable, versatile, and cost-effective products. In the cementation world, that would mean taking a hard look at reliability and versatility. In this CE webinar, Dr. Horowitz will discuss some of the dos and don’ts with regard to cementation to different substrates. Subsequently, a strategy will be developed to limit overhead while improving clinical outcomes.
Direct composites are the bread and butter of every dental practice. These procedures can be frustrating, time-consuming, and often create a less then desirable result.
