We spend a lot of time thinking - and very little time thinking deliberately. Dentistry trains us to act quickly, decide confidently and keep moving. What dentistry - and life - doesn’t teach is how to stop and think properly, with intention.

Dentistry contains a great deal of invisible work where effort isn’t recorded, charged for, or always consciously acknowledged, but which quietly and constantly uses our energy.

What I really enjoy about any kind of break from the usual routine – holidays, festivities, even work travel – is that is gives us some headspace away from the day-to-day to think.
