Have you noticed the shift in dentistry? Patients expect their dental care to be easier, delivered in a shorter treatment time, and painless. As clinicians, we understand the benefits of conservative restorative approaches and want to promote them at every opportunity. Given the advancement of early diagnostics, minimal intervention becomes even more paramount using cutting-edge technology. This CE webinar will discuss guiding principles for contemporary adhesive preparations using as little intervention as possible utilizing a new roll-out class of minimally invasive dental burs that provide a major impact. Learn how these burs can navigate a variety of current dental materials and tooth anatomy. ( full description, bio and commercial disclosure )

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.

There is a concept in dentistry that somehow adhesion is better and yet we see amalgams and crowns, held on by zinc phosphate cement, are still working in patients mouths 40+ years later but we see failure rates and replacements of various adhesive dentistry in 5-10 years. Where techniques use to be more simplistic with less steps and basic fundamentals we achieved success, and now we throw out many of those concepts and replace them with adhesion, we expect to find longevity. Are you seeing longevity or are you seeing more sensitivity, problems, failures or costly redos? This CE webinar is a look at where we are at with modern adhesion and what we believe we know. The goal is to give you some systems, tools and thoughts to consider to help you and your patients to have better longevity and success in the restorative dentistry you provide.

Advancements in technology and materials have shifted the field of dentistry. As a result, providers opt for more conservative restorative options for enhanced smile esthetics. Additive and minimally invasive restorations rely on chemical adhesion over mechanical retention with both their direct and indirect restorations. The road to reliability in adhesive dentistry is paved through consistency and reliance on adhering to science. Developing systems and protocols and sticking to them ensures long term stability with cosmetic restorations, which in turn results in happy patients with reliable outcomes. But how does one develop the proper systems and protocols? In this CE webinar, providers will learn how to simplify yet optimize their isolation techniques and bonding protocols to achieve more predictable long-term success with both their direct and indirect restorative outcomes.

A vast majority of the indirect restorations place in the dental practice currently are either fabricated from zirconia or lithium disilicate. The popularity of these materials is due to their excellent esthetics, durability and can be fabricated at a reasonable fee. But these materials are different and a significant factor in the clinical longevity of these materials is following correct clinical protocol at delivery and an understanding of the what the best choices of cement materials that are currently available. This CE webinar will discuss the appropriate protocol for the pretreatment of these two materials to maximize the retention of each type of restoration. Additionally, the webinar will discuss the different categories of dental cements currently available and which cements are better choices for each type of material and the clinical situation presented.
