Our Courses

The purpose of marketing is to drive new opportunity and a successful six-figure Invisalign Day takes this to a new level. Attendees will discover the media and messaging that resonates with prospective patients and gain an understanding of what it takes to position an offer that generates a big response.

Dr. Lisa Kane will be going over the following in this webinar:

• Reviewing current COVID-19 related regulations
• Clarification of OSHA’s Bloodborne Pathogen Standard
• Review of OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard
• Becoming aware of how all of this relates to you every day in your office
• Strategies to keep your office in compliance with current regulations
• Recognizing common areas where lapses occur and learning how to correct them

Lithium Disilicate (E-max) and Zirconia have become mainstream biomaterials of choice in restorative dentistry. Each material has very different chemical and physical properties which can be advantageous depending on the clinical scenario presented. This presentation aims to explain these differences and with case scenarios and give clinicians more confidence in their biomaterial selection for upcoming cases

Objectives:
1. Explain the different chemical and physical properties of E-max and Zirconia
2. Navigate the clinical indications and contraindications for these materials
3. Understand what type of restorations may benefit one material over another
4. Explore current literature on longevity and prognosis
5. Describe differences in prep design, material thickness, and insertion techniques

Ceramics have been able to adapt and keep up with the ever changing needs in dentistry and like many other materials and technologies they have been adopted from engineering and modified to solve clinical challenges. However the inherent brittleness, low flexural strength, fracture toughness of conventional glass and alumina ceramics have been the main obstacle for their extensive use. The discovery of ceramic oxides broadened the range of application of ceramics in dentistry and dental implantology in particular. The last decade has been one where we have witnessed an “explosion” in the use of zirconia in dentistry. Along with this phenomenon the manufacturing protocols and advanced formulas of zirconia have been created which have led to zirconia becoming a stable, biocompatible, bioinert and structurally stable implant material. Today in dental implantology there are two main zirconia ceramic implant biomaterials namely Yttria Stabilized Tetragonal Zirconia (Y-TZP) and Alumina Toughened Zirconia (ATZ).

This presentation will cover zirconia as an implantable bioceramic, the rationale and the indications and benefits of metal free teeth replacement. Clinical cases completed with zirconia dental implants and prosthetics will also be presented.

Objectives:

• Manufacturing process and designs.
• Have an understanding of zirconia as an implant material.
• Zirconia’s performance and behavior in bone and the oral environment.
• Treatment planning, surgical placement protocols and techniques.

• Objectively assess implant integration prior to permanent restoration.

• Restorative materials (primers, luting materials and techniques).
• Health benefits of zirconia.
• Case review and discussion.

Marketing will bring more opportunities to your practice and help build authority for your brand. However marketing without a strategy for conversion can leave many dentists wondering why their practice isn’t growing the way it could. In this webinar you will learn three things you and your team are doing that are killing conversion and gain insight to out-of-the-box solutions.
