Many practice managers began their careers as dental nurses. This gives them a great head start in the role, as they already know and understand many of the intricacies of working within the dental industry. As dental nurses, we are able to communicate with patients, clinicians, and fellow team members effectively – a skill that goes a long way in the role of manager. We also have a good understanding of the policies and standards we need to adhere to in order to remain compliant with our major governing bodies, the GDC and CQC.
November marks Mouth Cancer Action Month, a crucial time for dental practices to spotlight the importance of early detection in fighting mouth cancer. Dental nurses play an essential role in driving this effort, and by getting your practice involved, you can make a real difference.
The connection between oral health and general health is well understood within the dental profession, yet many patients are still unaware of this link and, as a result, may not fully appreciate the importance of maintaining good oral hygiene. This series will explore key systemic conditions associated with poor oral health and offer insights on how we can better support patients in improving their oral care.
Pregnancy is a time full of significant physical and emotional changes, and some of these changes can negatively impact oral health. Whilst this may not be a top priority to our patients at the time, it is important that we use every interaction throughout and after pregnancy to inform them of these changes and provide education on how to avoid long-term issues. This has become especially important to me following my own experience with pregnancy and recently welcoming my daughter. Even dental professionals are not immune from experiencing problems after such a huge life event!
