Optimum Dental Posture offers a number of practical and interactive training programs and consultancy to suit individual and practice needs.
Training Programs
’Ergonomics & Wellness in Dentistry’ 2-Day Workshop
Overcoming and Preventing Occupational Chronic Pain & Stress in the Clinic
In-house ‘Stress Management in the Clinic’ Workshop
Most clinicians and their teams have not been trained how to deal with the fearful human beings attached to the teeth they are treating. Anxious patients often cover up their fear and anxiety with a prickly outer mask, which can be taken personally and interpreted as hostility or lack of appreciation. This can lead to high stress levels and burn out for clinicians and teams.
This workshop focuses on:
Dental industry specific stressors such as time pressure, dealing with difficult patients in chair and on reception
Early recognition of stress signs
Relaxation techniques for oneself and patients
Mindfulness and embodied movement as a way of releasing tension in the clinic and daily life
*** This workshop is available in-person and on-line ***
