The American Dental Association (ADA) is hosting the 2011 Conference on Dentist Health and Wellness to provide dentists and their staff with tips to maintain, improve or enhance their quality of life inside or outside of the office.
The nationally-recognized conference is scheduled for Aug. 18-19 at ADA Headquarters, 211 E. Chicago Ave., Chicago, Ill. The conference has continually expanded its scope to provide attendees with the latest research and techniques to keep pace with increased awareness of the health and wellness of not only the dentist and the dental team but their patients as well.
Attendees have the option of taking courses that provide tips on general health and ergonomics or courses geared to working with dentists who have impairments and the current education, prevention and treatment of impaired dentists and/or patients.
The purpose of the conference is to bring together dentists, spouses, dental team members, dental students and professionals who work with dentists and connect them with national experts who can discuss and provide key information on health and wellness issues.
