Bacterial contamination of dental unit water lines is a growing liability concern for all dental offices. Bacteria that may be present include Legionella, Pseudomonas and Non-tuberculosis Mycobacteria. Without proper protocols, it is possible for dental unit water bacteria levels to be as much as 1000 times what is deemed acceptable by the CDC. This CE webinar, presented by Compliance Training Partners, highlights Centers for Disease control guidelines for dental unit water and provides solutions for maintaining a safe and healthy environment for both patients and staff. The webinar also reviews proper testing protocol and describes how to correct a dental unit water system that contains unacceptable levels of bacteria.

After veneer preparation, success depends on creating aesthetic, functional temporaries and executing a predictable cementation workflow. This CE webinar provides a streamlined, step-by-step approach to both phases. Participants will learn how to fabricate provisional veneers that support tissue healing, function, and aesthetics, while serving as a guide for final restorations. The webinar also outlines an efficient, evidence-based cementation process, including material selection, surface treatment, isolation, try-in, and adhesive bonding techniques. Key materials, clinical techniques, and common pitfalls will be discussed to help improve efficiency, consistency, and long-term outcomes.

This CE webinar is designed to provide clinicians with practical, experience-based guidance for achieving predictable and esthetic posterior composite restorations. Drawing from over 25 years of clinical practice, the lecture will highlight best practices that enhance efficiency, accuracy, and long-term success. Participants will gain insight into the essential tools and materials required for optimal outcomes, as well as how to avoid common and preventable diagnostic errors that can compromise treatment. The webinar will also focus on decision-making strategies for selecting the appropriate composite materials based on tooth location and functional demands. Attendees will learn proper tooth preparation techniques for esthetic restorations and will be introduced to streamlined methods and instrumentation that allow for faster, easier procedures while maintaining a natural appearance. Clinical video demonstrations of Class II and Class V composite restorations will further reinforce these concepts and provide real-world application.

In this CE webinar, Dr. Tony Mennito will explore all the elements that go into making beautiful and long lasting composite resin restorations. Picture this; a patient walks into your office with worn, broken down teeth. They want to feel that confidence that comes with a great smile. Composite resin can be a great, cost-effective material to help patients get their smile back. In this webinar Dr. Mennito will show you how you can utilize tools like dental photography, direct mock ups, and modern dental materials to win the confidence of your patients and deliver the highest esthetic outcomes.

Improving dental practice profitability rarely comes down to a single piece of equipment. It depends on how well the systems in a practice work together, from reliable utility equipment to efficient operatories and tools that stay in service. In most practices, profitability is closely tied to four operational factors: equipment uptime, operatory efficiency, maintenance speed, and equipment longevity.
Upon completion of this CE webinar, the student will be better positioned to maintain consistent patient flow and protect their production schedules.

Composite resin injectables are highly versatile materials that can be used in numerous scenarios to enhance cosmetic dental practices in a minimally invasive manner, while also facilitating everyday general dentistry. Mastery of composite dentistry, understanding proper adhesive protocols, and establishing effective isolation techniques are crucial steps toward gaining confidence in the functional outcomes of these restorations. In this CE webinar, our goal is to educate participants on how to confidently place predictable composite injectable restorations in both the esthetic zone and posterior teeth. We will cover various case types, including the increasingly popular fiber injectable composites used for build-up procedures. Additionally, we will provide an overview of the cementation protocols for indirect porcelain restorations using injectable materials.
The science and technology built into dental composite resins is impressive, but rarely do practitioners (or patients) realize how versatile our materials really can be. Direct placement is the most common approach for composite, but by relying on the material science within, predictable indirect composite restorations can also be life-like, strong and long lasting. Join the co-presenters in this CE webinar as they review cases from North and South America as they compare and contrast uses of composite resin in their daily practice.
Difficulty swallowing (dysphagia) affects your quality of life and your overall health. The ability to safely swallow is vital for adequate nutrition and hydration, and it prevents foods and liquids from entering your lungs, where they can cause pneumonia. Depending on which part of the swallowing process is affected, dysphagia can be described as:
• Oral dysphagia — when the problem is in the mouth, usually due to the movement of the tongue
• Pharyngeal or oropharyngeal dysphagia — when the problem is regarding food passing through the throat
• Esophageal dysphagia — when food is unable to move down through the esophagus
Swallowing disorders can lead to tooth decay and other oral health issues if they cause food or liquid to remain in the mouth. This can increase the risk of cavities and other oral diseases.

One of the most valuable steps a new dentist can take is finding a mentor—someone who’s been in the field for 25 years or more and has learned through experience, including their own mistakes. A mentor offers the chance to see what lies ahead, helping you avoid getting caught up in the moment and make well-thought-out decisions about the kind of practice you want to build and the investments you’ll need to make. Today, we’re sitting down with Dr. Chris Pescatore, a general dentist with over 30 years of experience. He has been a pioneer in digital dentistry since the early ’90s and has seen it all when it comes to creating aesthetic restorations. As you listen to Dr. Pescatore’s insights, we hope you gain invaluable advice to help guide you as you embark on your own dental career.

Today we’ll explore why direct composite procedures are quickly becoming a preferred alternative to traditional indirect restorations—and how you can use hybrid techniques like deep margin elevation and model-based composite crowns to deliver exceptional results without prepping away valuable tooth structure or sending cases to the lab. Joining us are two experienced clinicians, Dr Lauren Rainey and Dr Mauricio Watanabe. They will share how the use of highly filled nanocomposite materials in their techniques are transforming the way they restore teeth—and why patients are loving the results.
