This week on Dental Central we update you on everything that you need to know this month:

• The pandemic hasn’t gone away (with around 4,000 cases per day across Victoria), and we talk about the important things that you need to be doing to stay safe at work.
• The impact of the pandemic on dental practice busyness and staff shortages.
• A brief update on the new enterprise bargaining agreement negotiations for public sector dentists.
• Mental health and wellbeing initiatives that the ADAVB is undertaking.

If you are experiencing struggles, remember that the ADAVB offers free confidential counselling through Lifeworks on 1300 361 008, or you can call Beyond Blue on 1300 22 4636 or Dental Practitioner Support on 1800 377 700.
