Course Description

Behind the Smile: Mental Health in Implant Dentistry

Dentistry can be relentless—stress, pressure, and responsibility often take a toll behind closed doors. Sponsored by Straumann and the ITI, Behind the Smile is a powerful symposium shining a light on mental health in implant dentistry and equipping professionals with real tools to protect their well-being.

Prof. Steve Peters – Keynote: “What is Resilience and How Can We Achieve It?”

 

 

Start the day with an unmissable keynote from world-renowned psychiatrist and bestselling author of The Chimp Paradox, Professor Steve Peters.

Drawing from his latest book A Path through the Jungle, Professor Peters will explore:

✅ What it truly means to be robust and resilient

✅ Why managing your mind is often harder than it seems

✅ How the structure of your mind affects your reactions and mental health

 

Using his acclaimed Chimp Management Mind Model, he’ll challenge you to rethink how you approach your psychological well-being—both in dentistry and life.

Afternoon Workshop: Applying The Chimp Paradox

In the afternoon, one of Professor Peters’ expert Chimp Management team will lead a highly practical, interactive workshop. This session will give you clear strategies to:

  • Recognize and manage stress triggers
  • Improve communication with patients, staff, and peers
  • Build resilience to cope with the unique pressures of implant dentistry
  • Develop your own personalised mental health toolkit
