Freehand composite bonding can be technique-sensitive, time-consuming, and inconsistent, even for experienced clinicians. As patient expectations continue to rise, dentists need a more predictable and efficient approach to delivering high-quality aesthetic results. This CE webinar introduces a smarter workflow for composite bonding using injection techniques. Participants will learn how to transition from freehand artistry to a structured, repeatable system that improves accuracy, efficiency, and confidence. We will cover case selection, smile design principles, matrix fabrication, and the clinical steps required to deliver predictable results. Emphasis will be placed on simplifying the workflow without sacrificing aesthetics, allowing clinicians to achieve consistent outcomes while reducing chair time and stress. Whether you are new to injection composite or looking to refine your technique, this webinar will provide practical strategies you can begin implementing immediately in your practice.

Achieving profound, predictable local anesthesia is essential to providing exceptional patient care. This CE webinar explores the science behind successful anesthesia by examining how tissue pH and nerve membrane physiology influence anesthetic onset and effectiveness. Participants will learn practical techniques, including buffering strategies, to reduce time-to-numbness and improve the reliability of local anesthetic delivery. The webinar will also discuss methods for minimizing injection discomfort and patient anxiety to create a more positive clinical experience and enhance treatment acceptance. Finally, attendees will compare articaine with other commonly used amide anesthetics, evaluating their efficacy, safety, and cost considerations to support informed clinical decision-making.

73 million Americans make up the Baby Boomer generation, and they will all be over the age of 65 by the year 2030. Sometimes it just takes a little more time, or a little bit more space to care for an aging patient population. Other times, a whole host of oral issues pop up at once and it can be overwhelming for the provider and the caregiving team. This CE webinar will cover treating the aged dentition, how to talk to patients & their loved ones about chronic oral disease, armamentarium to make visits smoother and preventative & restorative products to keep on hand for reliable treatment outcomes.
Veneer longevity is determined by what we bond to and how teeth are prepared - long before cementation begins. This focused CE webinar presents a mock-up–driven veneer workflow, demonstrating how diagnostic planning and preparation design create optimal bonding conditions for predictable esthetics and long-term success. Attendees will gain a clinically practical framework for making bonding and preparation decisions that directly influence veneer performance and durability.
Composite dentistry has come a long way - from macrofills to nanofills to today’s nanohybrids and universal systems that aim to combine strength, esthetics, and efficiency. In this CE webinar, Dr. Luis Abrahante, DMD, shares his clinical perspective on the evolution of restorative materials and how they’ve shaped the modern restorative workflow. Attendees will explore foundational concepts such as C-Factor, shrinkage stress, and how advancements in filler technology and resin matrix design are influencing both technique and long-term outcomes.
This webinar will provide a practical, high-yield breakdown of what clinicians should consider when selecting a universal composite - from handling to polish retention to marginal integrity - and how newer materials are helping streamline procedures while elevating results. Whether layering an anterior case or restoring a posterior load-bearing tooth, you'll gain strategies that are grounded in everyday dentistry and adaptable across different case types.

This episode addresses how MTA—mineral trioxide aggregate—can be used as both an indirect and direct pulp cap and is ideal for perforations. MTA isn’t just an endodontist's material—it’s very much a general dentist’s material as well. Especially now, as more of us focus on minimally invasive dentistry and are doing everything we can to preserve the natural tooth. Our guest is Dr. Ryan Walsh, who maintains a full time private practice in Keller, TX. He is a Diplomate of the American Board of Endodontics (ABE) and serves on the Scientific Advisory Board of the Journal of Endodontics. Dr. Walsh maintains an appointment as Adjunct Assistant Professor at Texas A&M College of Dentistry and is actively involved in clinical research pertaining to bioactive materials, resorption processes, and clinical outcomes. He has lectured nationally and internationally on several topics in his specialty and has published multiple peer-reviewed articles and abstracts.
