In this CE webinar, Dr. Jean Creasey shares the nuts and bolts of her how own dental practice “prevented it’s way to success”. This webinar reviews why restoration alone is not a cure for caries disease and why focusing on strengthening tooth structure and modifying oral biofilms to favor dental health is key. It also emphasizes that dental caries must be managed as a chronic disease throughout a patients’ lifetime and that motivating patients to change is best achieved when the entire dental team is calibrated and committed to a prevention centered approach.

Caries Prevention Strategies: Incorporating Current Treatment Modalities into Clinical Practice Presenter: Dr. Joy Void-Holmes, RDH, BSDH, DHSc Sponsor: VOCO America Tue  5/24/22    7:00 PM ET    4:00 PM PT Tue  5/24/22    11:00 PM UTC CE Credits: 1 Interactive CEU Reserve Your Seat Now top

Despite advancing technologies in dental caries and prevention it remains one of the most common oral diseases globally. Dental health care practitioners are challenged to continually evaluate current research and incorporate findings into clinical practice to adequately equip their patients with health promotion and preventive strategies. With a paradigm shift from drill and fill to minimally invasive dentistry, which focuses on conservation of tooth structure, a medical model of disease management needs to be incorporated. The caries management plan for each individual should be based upon reducing caries risk factors and enhancing the protective factors with the additional aid of behavior modification coupled with minimal intervention restorative dentistry, if appropriate. This CE webinar will take a look at the latest evidence-based practical guidelines for caries management along with strategies to incorporate new treatment methods into daily practice.

Additive Restorative Dentistry: A Minimal and Non-Invasive Approach to Dental Care Presenter: Dr. Abdi Sameni Sponsor: GC America CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study) View Full Description »

The traditional current model in dentistry, influenced primarily by third party payers, offers only a “reactive” approach to restorative care. Most if not all conservative minimally & non-invasive treatment options are typically not “covered” expenses; and when they are, they are reimbursed at a rate that makes them unrealistic. In this CE webinar a more “proactive” approach will be presented to better serve the patient population and to enhance the practices ability to operate more independently and profitably without the interference of third parties.

No More Class 2 Restoration Stress Presenter: Dr. Susan McMahon Sponsor: VOCO America CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study) View Full Description »

Class 2 restorations are the one of the most common procedures done in dentistry but many of us find them stressful, are challenged to attain good adaptation in the box, find contacts unpredictable, struggle with sensitivity, and generally hate to see them in our schedules. And then there’s the issue with recurrent caries. Class 2 composite fillings have an average lifespan of 5-6 years. Failure is mostly frequently caused by secondary caries at the base of the proximal box. This CE webinar will teach the technique for efficiently placing successful Class 2 composite restorations. Feel confidence with Class 2s instead of the stress.
