Quick Sleeper 5 Discovery Event
If you've ever had a patient tense up before an injection, or spent valuable chair time waiting for a block to kick in, the QuickSleeper 5 was built with that frustration in mind. Using proprietary intraosseous technology, it delivers anesthesia directly to the bone, as close to the apex as possible, getting patients profoundly numb in seconds rather than minutes. The QuickSleeper eliminates prolonged soft tissue numbness, allows up to six teeth to be anesthetized with a single injection, and patients typically report feeling little more than a slight vibration. With nearly 10 million procedures performed annually and trusted by over 25,000 dentists in 40+ countries, this is not a new idea. It's a proven one.
This hands-on training course will walk you through everything you need to confidently integrate the QuickSleeper 5 into your daily practice. From technique and case selection to troubleshooting and patient management, you'll leave with real clinical skills, not just a brochure's worth of talking points. Whether you're looking to reduce patient anxiety, speed up your workflow, or simply offer a better anesthetic experience, this course is worth your Saturday.
The event will be held at the Luminary Education Center, 1301 Southpoint Boulevard, Petaluma, California, 94954. Friday, June 12, 2026 from 4-6 p.m. All participants will receive 2 CE credits.

CEREC Basic Training / Stain and Glaze Mastery / Zirconia Science Mastery
This immersive, hands-on training experience combines CEREC Basic Training with advanced Staining/Glazing Mastery and Zirconia Science Mastery to give doctors a complete, predictable path to same-day dentistry success. Participants will build confidence in the full CEREC workflow from software administration, setup, scanning, optical impressions, model manipulation, and virtual design through milling, manufacturing, and delivery of precise restorations. The course also dives into real-world system performance, including Prime Mill setup, calibration, maintenance, and daily care, so your technology runs at peak efficiency. By removing guesswork and tightening workflow systems, this training helps reduce remakes, save time, and improve productivity immediately while giving attendees a clear, repeatable process they can put into practice right away.
In addition to foundational workflow mastery, this course delivers focused training in zirconia material science, block selection for function and esthetics, prep design, burs, zirconia and glass ceramic workflows in CEREC software, milling and sintering, sprue removal, pre-polish and post-polish protocols, and the art of staining, glazing, coloring, and finishing highly esthetic restorations. Participants will also learn bonding, cementation, and delivery protocols for both zirconia and glass ceramics. This program is ideal for doctors who are new to CEREC zirconia, want to elevate their staining and glazing results, maximize zirconia and glass ceramic workflow efficiency, and/or want to consistently produce beautiful esthetic restorations.
The event will be held at the Luminary Education Center, 1301 Southpoint Boulevard, Petaluma, California, 94554. Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. All participants will receive 6 CE credits per day.

CEREC Anterior Esthetics / Stain and Glaze Mastery
This immersive, hands-on training experience focuses on Anterior Esthetics paired with advanced Staining & Glazing Mastery to give doctors a complete, predictable path to producing beautiful, lifelike anterior restorations. Participants will build confidence in the esthetic CEREC workflow, from optical impressions and shade matching through virtual smile design, material selection, and refined finishing, so the most demanding restorations in the mouth become repeatable rather than stressful. The course dives deep into the principles of anterior esthetics, including tooth morphology, proportion and symmetry, incisal translucency, value, chroma, and hue, and how to read and replicate the natural characteristics of adjacent teeth. By removing guesswork and tightening esthetic workflow systems, this training helps reduce remakes, save chair time, and consistently deliver results that satisfy even the most discerning patients.
In addition to anterior design fundamentals, this course delivers focused, hands-on training in the art and science of staining, glazing, coloring, characterization, and surface texture. Participants will learn block and material selection for anterior esthetics, prep design and bur selection for veneers and anterior crowns, glass ceramic workflows in CEREC software, milling, and the layered application of stains and glazes to create depth, translucency, and polychromatic effects. The program also covers pre-polish and post-polish protocols, surface luster and texture techniques, and the bonding, cementation, and delivery protocols that protect esthetics in the final result. This program is ideal for doctors who want to elevate their staining and glazing results, master the nuances of anterior restorations, and consistently produce natural, highly esthetic smiles.
The event will be held at Patterson Dental: 6555 S Tenaya Way #100, Las Vegas, NV 89113. Friday, July 24th from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, July 25th from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. All participants will receive 6 CE credits per day.
