Lasers have been used in dentistry for over 30 years. Recent developments in technology and differing wavelengths are creating a host of innovative treatments using various dental lasers. The modern practitioner needs to be familiarized with these devices and understand the possibilities and limitations of each device. This course is designed to help educate the dentists and dental hygienists on lasers and clear the confusion regarding the various wavelengths available.

Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) Applications in Dentistry

This course seeks to explore currently available and emerging enhanced visualization technologies and to discuss their utility in specific patients and clinical scenarios. The effectiveness of periodontal treatments, the associated duration of healing, a potential for reduction of pain and post-operative scarring, and optimization of clinical results may be improved for patients through such techniques.


Enhanced Visualization in Periodontal Therapy: A Clear Picture of Better Patient Care

This course is part 1 of a 10-part series entitled *Caries Process and Prevention Strategies.* Oral epidemiology is the area of public health that deals with the distribution and the impact of oral disease on the human population. In this course, emphasis is placed on the relevance of epidemiology to clinical practice and information about the prevalence, incidence and trends of dental caries in the United States is presented. The term DMF (decayed, missing, and filled teeth) is introduced, along with variations and limitations of the DMF index, and an explanation of how to calculate DMF scores.

Hazardous (and Universal) Waste Management

The field of endodontics is always evolving. It is important for health care providers to continue to recognize the changes overtime and apply them in everyday practice. This course will explore diagnosis, local anesthesia, instrumentation/obturation, and pain medications and antibiotics in clinical endodontic treatment.


A Clinician’s Guide to Clinical Endodontics

This course describes and discusses four‑handed dentistry; its integration in the modern dental office as well as a review of an ergonomically acceptable instrument transfer for use in four-handed dentistry. In addition, a series of exercises for the dental professional to use for stress reduction is included.

Over the years as new technology has been integrated into the modern dental office, no single product has increased productivity and reduced stress and strain on the dental team as much as using the concept of four‑handed dentistry. The clinical dynamics of four‑handed dentistry is an ergonomic chairside concept performed by a well-trained dental team in an organized manner. Combined with the practice of ergonomics in the workplace, the concept of true four‑handed dentistry must be revisited by the dental profession and applied to both the clinical and business areas of the office. The young dentists of the 21st century have had minimal exposure to true four‑handed dentistry during their educational experiences due to budget cuts in many of the dental schools around the country limiting their use of auxiliaries trained in this technique. The concept of four‑handed dentistry was born in the 1960s to overcome a manpower shortage. Demands were made on the dental profession to provide more services to more people due to the creation of third-party payment. As the years have passed, this single concept, when executed properly, has become even more important. Some demands may have diminished but the impact of regulatory agencies, managed care, infection control guidelines, the global pandemic due to COVID-19, and quality assurance of skills places even greater demands on the practicing dentist to implement efficient clinical practice methods to ensure a safe, comfortable environment for the entire team.

One of the most significant challenges in implant therapy involves optimally managing the transition of the restoration from the implant body through the soft tissues. This course will detail the importance of various factors affecting the diagnosis and treatment planning of biologically contoured implant restorations including the assessment of hard and soft tissues, peri-implant mucosal phenotype, restorative space, crown morphology, three dimensional (3D) and restoratively driven implant planning, developing consensus for ideal surgical implant position and placement of well-contoured provisional restorations or custom healing abutments. This course will also describe various techniques for fabricating customized healing abutments and the techniques for capturing tissue architecture in the definitive restoration.

Biologically Contoured Esthetic Implant Restorations

This course is part 10 of a 10-part series entitled *Caries Process and Prevention Strategies*. This course introduces the dental professional to risk terminology, and methods for identifying caries-causing factors and assessing a patient's risk for developing dental caries. It also outlines a risk protocol that can be used with patients.


Caries Process and Prevention Strategies: Risk Assessment

This course is part 9 of a 10-part series entitled *Caries Process and Prevention Strategies*. This course introduces the dental professional to the important role of fluoride in the prevention and control of dental caries. Systemic and topical forms of fluoride delivery are discussed as options for the majority of patients, and professional forms of fluoride delivery are discussed as sometimes-necessary measures for high-risk patients with severe caries.


Caries Process and Prevention Strategies: Intervention

This course is part 8 of a 10-part series entitled *Caries Process and Prevention Strategies*. This course introduces the dental professional to the concept of oral health promotion and education as a means of preventing caries. The topics discussed include understanding patient behavior, the barriers to change a patient may experience, why it is important for a dental professional to provide continuous support even when a patient is slow to change, and helping a patient to set goals that promote caries-reducing habits.
