Stress Management for Dental Professionals
by Jen Butler, MEd, CPC, BCC

This course discusses the topic of stress and stress management as it relates to dental professionals. With five learning objectives, participants will establish a common nomenclature in which to talk about the subject, increase their knowledge around the science of stress, learn the three main types of stress experienced within the practice, obtain the ability to assess their own stress, and determine which of their behaviors are reducing and/or perpetuating their stress.

Correction

In the May issue of Orthotown Magazine, we mislabeled the CE course on the Orthotown.com Highlights page. "Sweeping Away the Myths in Orthodontics: The Extraction/Non-Extraction Debate" is a course by Dr. Richard Litt not Dr. Eric Ploumis. We apologize for our error.
