Stress free dentistry: can we live the dream?

20 Nov 2026
Gallery Suite 11-12

Dentistry can be one of the most rewarding areas of small animal practice, but it can also be a source of stress and uncertainty. From challenging extractions to unexpected complications, creating a calmer, more enjoyable dental service requires more than technical skill alone.

This session explores practical ways to improve preparation, teamwork and clinical decision-making, helping delegates reduce stress, manage complications with confidence, and create a dental workflow that benefits patients, clients and the veterinary team.

  • By the end of this session, delegates will be able to:
  • Identify common causes of stress and challenge in veterinary dentistry.
  • Implement practical strategies to improve preparation, workflow and team confidence.
  • Anticipate and manage common dental complications effectively.
  • Develop a more rewarding and sustainable approach to delivering dental care.
