Zirconia and Lithium Disilicate are the 2 most popular current materials for crowns in the US. Although they can looks very similar with their excellent esthetic properties, the materials themselves require different pre-cementation protocols and materials. Understanding the proper way to treat each material before final cementation can effect the long term clinical performance. Additionally, because of the difference in the strength of each material there can be several "best" choices of cements that can be used. This CE webinar is created to discuss and demonstrate the materials, techniques and protocols specific to each material. ( full description, bio and commercial disclosure )

The stress of day to day practice does not always allow us to introduce new materials into to our daily routines. Fear of failure and extensive learning curves often leave dentists stuck with materials that are not current and/or materials that may not work as well as a modern advancement. In this CE webinar, join us as we explore a new/updated restorative material and how it not only can change the way we practice but also how it benefits our patients.

Zirconia has established itself as one of the most versatile and reliable materials in contemporary restorative dentistry. With advancements in CAD/CAM technology and speed-sintering protocols, zirconia restorations have become more efficient and predictable than ever before - particularly for implant-supported prosthetics. This evidence-based CE webinar will explore the expanding role of zirconia in modern chairside dentistry, with a special focus on restoring dental implants using the long-awaited hybrid zirconia implant abutment block. This innovative material offers unprecedented versatility, enabling clinicians to design and fabricate either screw-retained or cement-retained implant restorations from a single block. Participants will gain practical insight into clinical case selection, optimal preparation design, and strategies to streamline the zirconia workflow—from digital impression to finishing and delivery. Emphasis will also be placed on bonding and cementation protocols critical to the long-term success of zirconia restorations. You won’t want to miss Dr. Dhaval Patel share his experience and knowledge!

Restorative dentistry often delivers the best results when teeth are ideally positioned before treatment begins. This 1-hour CE webinar explores how clear aligner therapy can be used strategically to create a foundation for long-lasting, esthetic, and functional restorative outcomes. Participants will learn how to identify cases where minor tooth movement simplifies restorative procedures, reduces invasiveness, and enhances patient satisfaction. The webinar will cover treatment planning principles, sequencing aligners with restorative phases, and effective patient communication to encourage acceptance of pre-restorative orthodontics. Through case examples, clinicians will gain practical skills to integrate aligner therapy seamlessly into everyday restorative care.







Zirconia vs. Lithium Disilicate: Different Cementation Protocols Required
Presenter: Dr. Gary Radz
CE Supporter: Bisco

Zirconia and lithium disilicate (eMax and others) are the two most common direct restorative materials. Predictable long term cementation success is dependent on the proper pre-cementation treatment and understanding the different cement options available. As we currently do not have a universal it is important to understand the different cement options to make an informed decision. This CE webinar is designed to review the proper pre-cementation protocols and discuss the different cement categories to help the viewer create a workflow and thought process that will increase the predictability of their restorations.

A New Era in Conservative Esthetic and Adhesive Dentistry
Presenter: Dr. Michael DiTolla
CE Supporter: Ivoclar
Release Date: 6/30/25
Expiration Date: 6/30/28
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
This CE webinar will examine how technology has made it possible for clinicians to turn any prepped veneer case into a no-prep case, making our treatment much more conservative, and more acceptable to the patient. With today’s high-strength ceramics and adhesive cementation protocols, veneers can be made as thin as 0.3mm, making esthetic no-prep veneers possible, if the teeth are in the correct position and you're utilizing an esthetic, adhesive cement. No-prep veneers are more difficult to seat than prepped veneers or crowns, and a live demonstration will show a seating technique to mitigate those difficulties and the proper cementation protocol to create lasting, esthetic restorations.
