Dental Protection, in partnership with Wild Monday, is inviting dental professionals to a three part webinar series offering practical strategies for avoiding burnout and staying resilient during complaints.

The free, interactive webinars, which will run during February and March 2026, will cover:

  • How to stop the slide into burnout – 11 February
  • How to support your colleagues without burning out yourself – 4 March
  • How to manage yourself and stay resilient during a complaint – 25 March

Dr Yvonne Shaw, Underwriting Policy Lead at Dental Protection, said: “We see firsthand how burnout adversely impacts colleagues in their personal and professional lives, and in turn impacts the delivery of patient care. Without early support, these issues can lead to dental professionals feeling disengaged, needing time off work or even leaving dentistry altogether.

“Receiving a complaint from a patient can also cause stress and anxiety and lead us to question our own capability. It can trigger a range of emotions which can affect the ability to respond constructively.

“We are proud to partner with Wild Monday on this series of three webinars to help support members in developing strategies to prevent burnout, protect team members from burnout, and stay resilient through times of crisis or uncertainty.

“I would like to remind Dental Protection members facing mental wellbeing concerns to make use of our confidential counselling service which is a benefit of membership. Members can access telephone support 24 hours a day, seven days a week, as well as face-to-face counselling sessions.”

Dental Protection members can log into their Learning Hub account to register for the webinar series:
