Caries Risk Management for Modern Dental Professionals

Did you know nearly all cavities are preventable? Kerry will show you how implementing CAMBRA (Caries Management by Risk Assessment) can shift the focus in your practice from restorative surgical procedures to risk assessment and treatment of the biofilm and bacteria. Our profession needs to focus on the cause of the problem and identify treatment solutions to control, remineralize and repair caries. We need to recognize caries risk factors and offer risk management strategies. In this CE webinar, learn about tools, products and technology that can help your patients, as well as enhance your assessment skills. Kerry will show you how to add a caries management program into a modern dental practice.    (enter class)

Life Behind Bars: How to Identify a Biomimetic / Supercomposite

The goal of every composite restorative material developed by manufacturers, is to become the synthetic restorative that best mimics natural tooth structure and be the most Biomimetic available. Materials can claim to be the “best” in one or more performance categories or testing protocols. However, the best material theoretically - will be the one that is “best” in the greatest number of those testing categories or properties. This CE webinar will detail and analyze the various “key” testing protocols used in manufacturing for the testing of composite materials. We will then explain the in-vivo, clinical value, of those tests and associated bar graphs. Additionally, we will discuss how these various performance indicators, impact the long-term marginal integrity of restorations.    (enter class)

Less is More. Minimally Invasive LESS-ons

In this CE webinar, we will review digital and analog shading techniques for direct and indirect restorations. The need to blend as well as maximize bond strength drives modifications in both preparation approach and material depending on the intra-arch and intra-tooth position and size. Controlling tooth position especially when balancing spaces with pre-prosthetic orthodontics is critical, especially when a maxillary lateral incisor is involved.    (enter class)
