Helping Dentists Manage Risks and Overcome Challenges
Like all healthcare services, dentists are currently facing a huge backlog of care, which may take years to clear. This isn’t helped by the fact that thousands of dentists are leaving the NHS each year.
This excessive workload is taking its toll. According to the British Dental Association (BDA), 87% of UK dentists have experienced symptoms of stress, burnout, and other mental health problems.
And it’s not just the workload. Dentists may also face on-the-job health risks, including excessive levels of air pollution in their local area, and occupational exposure to common chemicals such as Entonox.
Plus, infections can spread just as easily in dental surgeries as they can in GP waiting rooms. On top of all of their other responsibilities, dentists also have a legal obligation to prevent the spread of healthcare acquired infections within their surgeries.
