Prevention - The Base for Good Oral Health and Restorative Success Presenter: Timothy Bizga, D.D.S. CE Supporter: Centrix Release Date: 10/28/24 Expiration Date: 10/28/27 CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study) View Full Description »

Restorative care is the core of dentistry. Dentists are proud of their work and the beautiful restorations they create; however, with high-risk patients it can feel like building a house on sand when the restoration ultimately fails due to secondary caries. Preventive care addresses the underlying cause (dental caries) and ultimately ensures a more predictable restorative outcome. In this webinar, I will discuss the importance of individualized preventive care – how it benefits the patient’s overall oral health, and in cases where the patient receives restorative treatment, extends the longevity of the restoration. I will further explain how prevention is not a one-size-fits-all protocol. Treatment should be tailored to the patient’s caries risk and should not be limited by age or insurance coverage.

Back-to-School Essentials: Fluoride Varnish and Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) Presenter: Dr. John Frachella CE Supporter: Centrix Release Date: 8/1/24 Expiration Date: 8/1/27 CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study) View Full Description »

Good oral health plays an important role in a student’s performance at school. Dental disease can distract from learning, cause students to miss school, or even lower their self-esteem. With caries being the most common chronic childhood disease in the U.S., it is crucial for us as clinicians to have strong prevention protocols in place. Fluoride varnish is an essential tool in preventive care. But what about patients who present with active caries? This CE webinar will address silver diamine fluoride (SDF) and how it stops further progression of caries lesions thus controlling the disease even if we can’t restore the tooth with drilling and filling right away.

Importance of Silver Diamine Fluoride in the Restorative Process Presenter: Dr. Analia Veitz-Keenan CE Supporter: Centrix Release Date: 6/17/24 Expiration Date: 6/17/27 CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study) View Full Description »

Many clinicians believe that once a carious lesion is treated with silver diamine fluoride, restorative treatment is no longer necessary. The truth is, SDF does not restore the form and function of the tooth, therefore, in most cases, the restoration is still needed. It is important for clinicians to understand the benefits of incorporating SDF as a standard part of the restorative process for all patients. SDF buys time, preserves healthy tooth structure, and provides you and your patients with more flexible treatment options. During this CE webinar, we will present specific case examples to show the value SDF adds to restorative care.

Silver Diamine Fluoride for Patients of All Ages Presenter: Dr. Justin Cardarelli and Dr. Marmar Mesgarzadeh CE Supporter: Centrix Release Date: 4/15/24 Expiration Date: 4/15/27 CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study) View Full Description »

Silver diamine fluoride has been used internationally for decades due to its antimicrobial and desensitizing properties. This therapeutic agent has only become available in the Unites States in the recent years and there is a lot of unclarity surrounding its use. As clinicians, it is vital for us to fully understand its benefits and embrace its usage as it can help us better care for our patients. In this CE webinar, we will discuss the mechanisms of action behind SDF, describing how and why it works as a desensitizer and a caries arrest agent. We will outline the best ways you can incorporate it into your treatment protocol and discuss the unique benefits it provides to patients of all ages, including children where SDF is used commonly, and adults where this tool is underutilized.

Caries is increasing in the adult patients you treat every day.

If you believe SDF is only for pediatric and geriatric patients, this webinar will change your approach. Other treatment options like fluoride varnish and sealants will also be covered. I will break down when and how each treatment should be used for best patient outcomes based on evidence.
