More and more, dental hygienists are expected to select the most accurate CDT procedure codes for the medically necessary treatment they provide to patients. Since the ADA’s Code Maintenance Committee meets yearly, those procedures and their descriptors can either be amended, deleted, or stay the same. The CE webinar will discuss the changes (or not) and additions/deletions which came on January 1, 2025. Some of the new and updated dental procedure codes will include revisions and additions to implant maintenance procedures, long requested by hygienists. In addition, more and more caries management products are being developed and how to know which code is the most appropriate. And what procedure code for desiccation therapy? A total of 10 new codes, 8 revised codes and 2 deleted codes will be presented.

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.

This CE webinar will deal with numerous aspects of comprehensive restorative aesthetic dentistry and efficient patient care in today’s dental practice. We will discuss how to make routine dental procedures such as adhesion and direct resins more predictable and efficient using the latest material technologies. Also discussed will be the indirect restoration protocol including preparation design for the current restorative materials and the use of impression materials vs digital technologies. Insertion protocols will also be addressed to aide the clinician in developing a foolproof method to deliver high quality, long-lasting restorations.

Armed with new clinical guidelines based on recent systematic reviews, clinicians must choose between the comfort of what they’ve always done and what can stop and reverse dental caries. It’s time to move from bonding to chemical fusion.
Featured On-Demand CE Webinars
Fibre-reinforced direct bridges (FRDB’s) have shown good performance in clinical applications, capable of overcoming functional masticatory loading with a more biomimetic behavior than rigid metallic or full ceramic prostheses. Its retention relies on adhesive capacity which allows a lower tooth structure removal than conventional alternatives, as minimal or no sound tooth structure preparation is needed on the abutment.
Dentistry is not just about teeth. It is about the person and their environment that can make or break the experience of a patient at the dentist. Neurodivergent patients struggle with “traditional” dental visits in different ways and for different reasons that are unique to them. This CE webinar will help build a better understanding of how each dental team member and the design of the office can positively impact a patient’s oral health by creating an Inclusive Dental team and practice.
Dentistry is challenging and stressful, but definitively working with the pediatric patient potentially can take all our energy and effort. This CE webinar will present the current, state-of-the-art, of the most contemporary techniques for behavioral management with the pediatric patient in the dental chair. All, nonpharmacological and pharmacological alternatives will be discussed in detail. The use of well-known techniques like "tell-show-do" will be re-introduced to the audience. The correct use of nitrous oxide and the indications (and contraindications) will be also presented with time to have a discussion of the critical "tips" for the successful use of nitrous oxide.

Most of us have started using zirconia as a material for our indirect restorations. We either mill it chairside or send it out to the lab to be fabricated. Either way we need to make sure that our technique is perfect when delivering it to the tooth, especially if we are working with a non-retentive prep. If we need to rely on adhesion, we have to understand the nuances of bonding zirconia to tooth structure. To tell us all about it is our guest Dr. Alex Vasserman. Dr Vasserman is a respected clinician running his own practice on the Upper East side of Manhattan.
