Mental health wellness: Investing in ourselves as well as our patients

The worldwide dental profession is one of the most at-risk for mental health disorders. These include burnout, depression, anxiety and other negative effects of stress. The pressures of modern dentistry drive to compound these stresses and it’s important to recognise and address the signs early. In this webinar, we will shine a light on some of the issues that can drive poor mental health and take time to explore changes to our working environment which may alleviate some of the pressures that impact on our lives in and out of clinic.

In this webinar, we will look at developing the skills to recognise and improve day to day mental health wellness and how we can utilise the Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) protocol to our mental health advantage.

Learning objectives:

• Recognise the signs of burnout and other mental health disorders.
• Explore areas in our working day which may contributing to poor quality of mental health.
• Discuss how and why implementing the GBT protocol can change the way clinicians feel about their working day.
