Driving into dentistry
Re-calculating your “dental GPS”. This paper uses the analogy of a driver and a journey for a dentist and their career. It uses the driver, the car and the trip as a blueprint against which the clinician can juxtapose themselves, their environment and their path of work. The aim is to raise awareness of the need for regular self-reflection, re-calculation and adaptation if and when it is needed.
