Attachments play a critical role in aligner biomechanics, yet the method used to create and deliver attachments can significantly influence clinical efficiency, predictability, and esthetic outcomes. This CE webinar explores the differences between traditional attachment creation methods and custom attachment systems delivered via pre-fabricated trays. Participants will examine common challenges associated with conventional attachment workflows—such as technique sensitivity, variability in attachment shape, excess composite cleanup, and inconsistent engagement—and compare them with newer custom approaches designed to improve consistency and streamline clinical procedures. Practical considerations related to treatment planning, attachment placement, and bonding best practices will be discussed to help clinicians make informed decisions when selecting an attachment strategy for aligner therapy.

Oral health for older adults is an increasingly significant challenge in dentistry today. As people age, their risk of developing caries, periodontal disease, and other oral health complications rises. This heightened risk is often exacerbated by systemic health conditions, polypharmacy, and decreased dexterity, which can impact daily hygiene practices. Unlike younger populations, older adults face unique barriers, including complex medical histories, cognitive decline, and notable changes in insurance coverage after retirement. These factors not only affect their access to dental care but also influence how treatments must be planned and delivered. This evidence-based CE webinar equips dental professionals with practical strategies to enhance the quality of care for older adults in dental office settings. Participants will learn to identify the specific caries risk factors associated with aging patients, apply preventive and minimally invasive management strategies, and adjust treatment protocols for medically fragile individuals. The webinar will also address the impact of changing insurance structures after retirement on access to care, as well as how dental teams can navigate these challenges to provide effective and patient-centered outcomes.


Burnout to Balance: A Practical Guide for Dental Professionals

Burnout is more than just feeling tired — it’s a serious occupational phenomenon affecting dental professionals at every level. From packed schedules and patient anxiety to perfectionism and lack of autonomy, dentistry is especially vulnerable to chronic stress. This CE webinar helps participants recognize the early signs of burnout, understand the factors that contribute to it, and learn practical, sustainable tools to prevent or recover from burnout — individually and as a team.


The Screening That Saves Lives: Oral Cancer and the Dental Team

This CE webinar will provide oral health care providers with information regarding oral cancer. Potentially malignant conditions, particularly leukoplakia, will be discussed. Prevention of the disease is primarily the job of oral health care professionals; therefore, a focus will be made on preventing oral squamous cell carcinoma.

Lithium Disilicate vs Zirconia: Concepts in Cementation that will Lead to Clinical Success
Presenter: Dr. Gary Radz
Sponsor: Bisco
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
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.







Mastering Resin Infiltration for Predictable Results
Presenter: Irene Iancu, BSc, RRDH, CTDP, OM
Sponsor: DMG America
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
This practical, case-based CE webinar provides an in-depth look at how to successfully implement resin infiltration in your practice. We’ll discuss lesion assessment, effective techniques, the role of pre-whitening in esthetic results, and what sets resin infiltration apart from traditional approaches. You’ll learn from real clinical cases, including both successes and failures, to refine your approach and optimize patient outcomes. This webinar will provide actionable insights to elevate your confidence and results.







Precision Bonding for Indirect Restorations
Presenter: Dr. Devin McClintock
Sponsor: Bisco
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Bonding procedures for indirect restorations are among the most technique-sensitive steps in restorative dentistry, and often they are the key difference between predictable longevity and early failure. From ceramic veneers and onlays to full-coverage restorations and post-endodontic build-ups, understanding substrate management, adhesive selection, and proper material handling is critical for long-term success. This CE webinar will break down bonding protocols into clear, practical steps that can be immediately implemented in daily practice. With a special focus on adhesive practices and material selection, this course will explore decision-making for enamel vs. dentin bonding, selective etch protocols, dual-cure compatibility, post cementation considerations, and predictable core build-up techniques. Attendees will gain confidence in simplifying their armamentarium while elevating clinical outcomes through a consistent, evidence-based bonding workflow.


Featured Podcast Episodes
Series: VOCO America CE Credits: 0.5
Guest: Dr. Jennifer Derse
Part of the strategy of a successful practice, as our guest points out, is to get the patient to become part of the conversation. This of course helps with case acceptance and patient satisfaction. We'll be talking about the importance of cusp protection in our restorations and why it's so important to consider a crown versus composite restorative. We'll also discuss how the standardization of dental materials within a given practice helps improve efficiency and productivity.
Dr. Derse is a mentor at the Kois Center in Seattle, WA and has lectured internationally on cosmetics, restorative dentistry, aligner therapy, and case presentation and acceptance.

The reality is, many patients simply can’t afford traditional, lab-fabricated veneers. And without a more affordable option, they do nothing and continue living with a smile they’re not happy with. But now, there’s a solution. With a product called VeneerNow, dentists can offer a beautiful, life-changing makeover that’s easy to do, completed in a single visit, and well within reach for most patients. Dr. Lundon Albrecht shares with us how this easy-to-use veneer system has been a game-changer for his practice.

Series: Bisco CE Credits: 0.5
Guest: Dr. John Gammichia
Today we’re chatting with Dr. John Gammichia, a general dentist who’s made a name for himself saving what many would call “bombed out” teeth — all with conservative, direct composite. We’ll dive into how he handles deep decay and pulp exposures, the materials and techniques that make it possible, and how his approach has become a real practice builder — showing that fee-for-service dentistry focused on preserving tooth structure can be both patient-centered and profitable.
