Due to the multi-factorial nature of work-related pain in dentistry, rarely does a single intervention (i.e. new loupes, strength training) permanently resolve chronic pain issues. Research reveals five key areas that are essential to resolve effectively work-related pain in dentistry. The sequence in which these are implemented is also integral to successfully resolving pain. This dynamic, interactive lecture introduces ground-breaking education that can help rejuvenate your love of doing dentistry and transform your life.
