Caries Risk Management for Modern Dental Professionals
Presenter: Kerry Lepicek, RDH
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.

Life Behind Bars: How to Identify a Biomimetic / Supercomposite
Presenter: Mr. Gregor Connell
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.

Improving Preventive Care Outcomes with Salivary and Biofilm Diagnostics
Presenter: Lory Laughter, RDH
Saliva is a window into our oral health status. Since our saliva contains protective, destructive and diagnostic components, testing is beneficial in caries and periodontal risk diagnosis. Recognizing the markers can assist in developing preventive and restorative treatment plans. Salivary diagnosis is the gateway to effective patient education and provides valuable insight into patient oral and overall health. This CE webinar will cover the current and historical research around salivary diagnosis as well as suggestions for treatment planning and patient education to reduce disease risk.

Treating Between the Lines: Understanding Rx and Illicit Drug Abuse
Presenter: Dr. Ronni Brown, D.D.S., M.P.H.
Substance abuse is at an all-time “high” in this country with an estimated 1 out of every 10 Americans addicted to prescription or illicit drugs. As dental professionals, we must awaken to the reality that many of our patients have substance-use disorders and that our examination findings of advanced caries, severe hyposalivation, and poor plaque control are often the effects of depressant, stimulant, and opioid abuse. In this CE webinar, learn how to recognize the clues of substance abuse from a routine dental examination, discuss your concerns and suspicions with patients, develop and deliver safe and effective dental treatment, and manage pain with non-opioid medications. *Note: Course content does not include marijuana

The Truth About Occlusion and Rethinking "Normal"
Presenter: Dr. Kelly Tanner, PhD, RDH
What is the occlusion on the right? How about the left? What does this mean for your patient’s oral health? Malocclusion or misalignment can lead to oral maladies that increase the risk of tooth loss and periodontal disease. Malocclusion may also be a marker for airway issues, TMJ disorders, and migraines, significantly impacting the patient's overall health. Receding gums and tooth wear isn't something we should dismiss as "normal". Taking the time to research these conditions can help us identify factors leading to long-term damage, so our patients enjoy a lifetime of healthy smiles - saving them from painful procedures or high costs down the line.
