What if preventative care was viewed as a calibrated system that elevated team performance and drove measurable growth? This CE webinar explores how dental teams can use structured prevention tools to align around a shared standard of care, improve patient outcomes, and track the business impact of their hygiene department. Attendees will examine how self-assessments, risk evaluations, and communication tools create consistency across providers, leading to stronger documentation, better case acceptance, and elevated KPIs. The CE webinar will also touch on the impact of prevention on key performance indicators (KPIs), including hygiene production, case acceptance, and patient retention. Whether you’re a hygienist, practice owner, or clinical lead, this course will provide practical strategies to turn prevention into profitability—rooted in individualized patient care. Attendees will leave with actionable strategies to strengthen their role as a prevention specialist by enhancing their skills in early risk-identification, communicating findings effectively, and incorporating streamlined tools while boosting clinical efficiency.

The most used materials in today’s general practice are burs, bonding agents, and composites for direct restorations. The evolution of this group of materials, in particular, is amazing. Today’s light cure resins are light years ahead of the materials that we thought were great 20 years ago. The evolution of materials includes base or lining materials when the proximity to the pulp requires some form of pulpal protection. Calcium has been proven to be a critical adjunct to the armamentarium of all general dentists performing routine decay excavation and tooth restoration. This CE webinar is designed for the busy dentist who wants to stay current with the available materials and concepts of efficient placement of tooth-colored restorations. We will discuss what matters most in pulpal protection material selection, depending upon location and occlusal load put on the restoration. Reduction and elimination of post-operative sensitivity will be addressed.

Most dentists still think of composite as filling material that should be packed into boxy preps, cured in layers and used at room temperature. Today there is scientific evidence that is the wrong way to use composite. Injection molding techniques that can wrap around the preparations are possible by using heated multi-viscosity resins. You will discover the benefits and available options for various warming techniques.
One in 44 children have been diagnosed on the Autism Spectrum, with approximately 100 newly diagnosed patients daily. Since first identified as a disorder in the 1940’s, Autism Spectrum is the fastest growing developmental disorder in current history. Treating special needs patients in a dental practice presents a multitude of challenges from behavior and cooperation concerns to related health concerns, not to mention the oral considerations associated with medications. As these children on the Autism Spectrum age and integrate into society as young adults many also age out of pediatric dental practices and are seen in general practices. As a practicing hygienist and mother of an Autistic child the speaker has learned methods to ease the anxiety associated with dental appointments for many patients in addition to common oral conditions that may affect individuals with Special Needs.

Until recently, Dr. Sarah Winter, who runs a cosmetic focused practice in La Jolla CA, used two different composite systems for her direct restorative cases. She used a micro-filled composite for her anterior cases for high polishability and a bulk fill for her posterior cases which provided lots of strength. But recently, she found one material that actually does both, offering strength and esthetics. According to Dr. Winter, this newer material has made her life and her staff's a whole lot easier. Today we'll talk about her transition to this new restorative composite.
