Subtle signs of a toxic relation that you have been ignoring coz “it’s practice”

1)It’s making you insecure :
To the limit of obsession. You have put in all your time and energy into your practice. Needless to say sweat money and blood into it. But your practice is not performing enough and is making you worry to the extent of taking a toll on your health. You might have taken loans thinking your practice will pay it off and now it is giving you nightmares.

2)It is holding you an emotional Hostage :
Whenever you take a day off to yourself, you feel guilty about it. You feel guilty over the stuff you really have no control over, like patients not walking in, or you expecting more from a day’s work.

3)Overstepping of Limits:
If Your practice is what is on your mind, and your practice is all that you do then you need to think rationally. Your practice is dominating your life without giving you a break.

4)Pulling you down?
Do you feel your good work is not getting the right appreciation that you deserve? Basically, if at the end of the day you have hijacked your good mood. You need to rethink where exactly are you? Is it because of your skills as a dental surgeon or the “employer” the clinic at who is driving you crazy and making you question yourself? Are they making you feel worthless or putting you down in front of your patients?

Take a break. Think Hard.

Realize what is wrong, where are you going wrong? Are you giving enough time to yourself and your family? Are you stuck in a stagnant relationship with your practice?

Once you realize what is wrong, do not hesitate to take help. If you are a fresher and have a new set up find mentors who will help you with managing your practice. Maybe they will point out a few reasons why your practice is taking all your energy and giving you nothing in return. You can always find many courses online to make you better at the skills you lack and give you valuable lessons of life. You can find verified courses for dentists PAN India on BookMyCDE, book or call them for queries and register after you have been satisfied with the inquiry.

Find time and pamper yourself at least once a week. Don’t forget that you are also growing older every day. Take care of your healthy diet and be happy even if you had just one walk in. Have patience things will change.
As for your toxic relationship with your employer, you need to figure out your shit. There are many many people who will pay you and value you as a dental practitioner. They might even be mentors to you to help you set your own practice once you are experienced enough. You can find employers looking for associate dentists on the Indian Dental Network app. From all over India. You can search have one on one talk with them before deciding to join their practice.
If you keep on staying in a relationship like this it can take away your mental peace, confidence and eat away your happiness and sense of freedom so discreetly, that you wouldn’t even know what is happening.

You are the protagonist in your story. It’s your job to do everything in your hands to shine in your story.

Break The Stereotypes About You That Aren’t True

It is important that your patient visits you for each and every visit that you appoint them for or twice a year for regular checkups and cleanings, but many of your patients fail to visit or  avoid going due to misconceptions and stereotypes about you. These stereotypes can keep your patients from getting the care you can provide and save them from long visits ad a hole in their pocket .We live in a society where Dentist’s are still not given a position equivalent to Doctors, rather they are accused of overcharging, have prolonged visits and what not. Tackling some of these misconceptions can make your patients feel more confident about visiting you and help to ensure your patient's mouth stays healthy. 1) You Don’t Care About Causing Pain One of the biggest misconceptions about dentists and dentistry is that dentists enjoy causing pain. This is simply not true. Dentists go into the profession because they want to help patients improve their oral health and overall well...

Little acts of kindness !! (Part I)

The horror in your patient’s eyes says it all. You accidentally uttered words you should never say in front of unsuspecting patients. The second you said what you were thinking out loud you knew you’d messed up. Not only did you see the surprise in the patient’s eyes, but in other team members’ eyes as well. This has happened to the best of dental professionals . Hopefully, everyone learns a lesson from the slip-ups and won’t do it again.                     “What should the dental team never say or do in front of patients?” Let’s start with the №1 answer sent from dental professionals in all office positions — OOPS!

Little Acts of Kindness (Part ll)

Previously we spoke about how little words of encouragement, acts of kindness, not only make you a better person but takes your practice to an elite level which in this corporate world is hard to find. Arrange Dental Camps: When you arrange dental camps for patients for dental awareness, here are a few things that happen: You come out as a doctor who is dedicated to the welfare of society. You get more patients in one place. You get to people, who had no idea how much dental care they needed because “they had no pain. This is one of the best ways to give back to society what you earned from it.                                        Who is the “hand of the king”?                Have you been to domin...
