Course Description

In the United States, a dentist has the #2 ranked best job but also comes with one of the top suicide rates of any profession! Dr. Stanley will discuss this taboo topic in relation to stress from highly demanding patients, excessive dental school debt, and many other factors making for a stressful life for dental professionals. We will examine different aspects of predictable clinical dentistry, practice management, and research-proven stress reduction techniques that allow dentists to be more successful in their clinical practices and live a more balanced life. By examining this topic, we can help many of our colleagues struggling with mental health issues related to this profession that we love.

• Introduce this taboo topic and how it relates to dentistry
• Identify stress topics in most dentists’ lives-give research
• Proven ways to reduce stress both clinically and in your personal life
