Live Dental CE Opportunities This Week
Here are the live dental CE webinars happening August 24–30, 2026.
What Does Science Tell Us About Fluoride Varnish?
Date: Monday, August 24, 2026
Time: 7:00 PM ET / 4:00 PM PT
Format: Virtual, Live Interactive Webinar
Credits: 1 Live, Interactive CEU
Presenter: Shelley Brown, MEd, BSDH, AS, RDH, FADHA
Sponsor: Centrix
Fluoride varnish has long been a cornerstone of preventive dentistry, yet growing patient hesitancy and widespread misinformation have made it increasingly important for clinicians to understand—and confidently explain—the science behind its effectiveness. A strong foundation in fluoride research allows dental professionals to educate patients while making informed clinical decisions.
This live dental CE webinar explores the biological mechanisms that make fluoride varnish an effective preventive treatment. Shelley Brown will review fluoride uptake, fluorapatite formation, prolonged enamel contact time, and the behavior of different varnish formulations on the tooth surface. Participants will also discuss clinical considerations when selecting fluoride varnishes for patients with varying preventive needs.
By strengthening their understanding of fluoride science, attendees will be better prepared to communicate evidence-based recommendations, improve patient confidence, and support long-term caries prevention.
What you'll learn:
- The science behind fluoride varnish effectiveness
- How fluoride uptake strengthens enamel
- The role of fluorapatite formation in caries prevention
- Why prolonged varnish contact improves clinical outcomes
- How fluoride varnishes interact with tooth surfaces
- Clinical differences between varnish formulations
- Factors to consider when selecting fluoride varnish
- Evidence-based responses to fluoride misinformation
- Strategies for improving preventive patient education
- Best practices for long-term enamel protection
This course is ideal for dentists, dental hygienists, preventive care providers, pediatric dental professionals, and dental teams interested in fluoride therapy, preventive dentistry, caries management, and evidence-based patient education.
Cementation Confidence: STICKing to Systems So Your Ceramic Sticks!
Date: Tuesday, August 25, 2026
Time: 7:00 PM ET / 4:00 PM PT
Format: Virtual, Live Interactive Webinar
Credits: 1 Live, Interactive CEU
Presenter: Dr. Jennifer Derse
Sponsor: Bisco
Successful indirect restorations depend on more than precise preparation and excellent laboratory work. Proper cement selection and surface treatment protocols play a critical role in achieving durable bonds and long-term restorative success. As restorative materials continue to diversify, clinicians must understand which cementation systems perform best in different clinical situations.
This live dental CE webinar presents a substrate-driven approach to cementation, helping clinicians match luting agents, primers, and surface treatments to specific restorative materials such as zirconia and lithium disilicate. Dr. Jennifer Derse will guide participants through every stage of the cementation workflow, from surface conditioning and isolation to seating, cleanup, and finishing.
Attendees will gain practical decision-making strategies that reduce postoperative sensitivity, minimize debonding, and simplify one of restorative dentistry's most technique-sensitive procedures.
What you'll learn:
- Major categories of dental luting agents
- How restorative materials influence cement selection
- Surface treatment protocols for ceramic restorations
- The role of primers, silane, and adhesive systems
- Proper isolation and contamination control techniques
- Try-in and post-try-in cleaning procedures
- Common causes of cementation failure
- Strategies for preventing debonding
- Clinical workflows for predictable cementation
- Techniques for improving restorative longevity
This course is ideal for general dentists, restorative clinicians, prosthodontists, and dental teams interested in adhesive dentistry, indirect restorations, ceramic bonding, cementation protocols, and restorative workflow optimization.
Bright Light, Dry Bite: Work Smarter, Not Wetter!
Date: Wednesday, August 26, 2026
Time: 7:00 PM ET / 4:00 PM PT
Format: Virtual, Live Interactive Webinar
Credits: 1 Live, Interactive CEU
Presenter: Dr. Lundon Albrecht
Sponsor: Zyris Isolite
Effective isolation is fundamental to achieving predictable restorative and preventive outcomes. Proper moisture control improves visibility, simplifies clinical procedures, and creates a more efficient working environment for both clinicians and assistants.
This live dental CE webinar explores practical strategies for integrating effective isolation into everyday dental procedures. Dr. Lundon Albrecht will review common isolation techniques, discuss clinical situations where isolation has the greatest impact, and demonstrate streamlined workflows that improve procedural efficiency.
Participants will leave with practical protocols for selecting appropriate isolation methods while improving visibility, moisture control, and overall clinical performance.
What you'll learn:
- Why isolation is essential for predictable clinical outcomes
- Clinical situations where isolation improves efficiency
- Moisture control techniques for restorative procedures
- Comparisons of common isolation methods
- How to choose the appropriate isolation technique
- Step-by-step isolation workflows
- Strategies for improving visibility during treatment
- Ways to simplify routine procedures
- Techniques for increasing clinical efficiency
- Best practices for integrating isolation into daily practice
This course is ideal for dentists, dental assistants, hygienists, restorative clinicians, and dental teams interested in clinical isolation, restorative efficiency, moisture control, and workflow optimization.
Everyday Sensitivity Management for the Clinical Team
Date: Thursday, August 27, 2026
Time: 7:00 PM ET / 4:00 PM PT
Format: Virtual, Live Interactive Webinar
Credits: 1 Live, Interactive CEU
Presenter: Ms. Shannon Pace Brinker, CDA
Sponsor: Ivoclar
Dentin hypersensitivity is one of the most common patient complaints encountered in clinical practice. Developing standardized protocols for identifying the cause of sensitivity and selecting appropriate treatment options can improve patient comfort while creating more consistent clinical outcomes across the entire dental team.
This live dental CE webinar presents a practical approach to sensitivity management using simplified clinical decision trees and evidence-based treatment strategies. Shannon Pace Brinker will review common causes of dentin hypersensitivity, proper application techniques for desensitizing materials, and both in-office and at-home therapies that support long-term patient comfort.
Participants will also learn communication strategies that improve patient understanding, increase treatment compliance, and help reduce postoperative discomfort through predictable sensitivity management protocols.
What you'll learn:
- Common causes of dentin hypersensitivity
- Clinical decision-making using simplified sensitivity assessment
- Evidence-based in-office treatment options
- At-home recommendations for sensitivity management
- Proper application of desensitizing materials
- Product selection for different clinical situations
- Strategies for reducing postoperative sensitivity
- Patient communication techniques that improve compliance
- Practical protocols for everyday sensitivity management
- Approaches that support long-term patient comfort
This course is ideal for dentists, hygienists, dental assistants, restorative clinicians, and dental teams interested in dentin hypersensitivity, patient comfort, preventive care, restorative dentistry, and evidence-based treatment protocols.
