Being a dentist is difficult. Being a dentist who owns their dental practice is even more challenging. Burnouts are very common in the dental industry, both among business owners and team members.

Being bored, tired, or having trouble concentrating are all symptoms that indicate you are starting to burn out. If you ever find yourself or your team feeling demotivated or lacking enthusiasm, you know you’re on the path to burnout. If you don’t act the moment you notice these signs, you may land in deep trouble. Studies show that burnt-out business owners lose 60% of their recurring revenue within 2 years of burnout. If you’re able to identify the root cause of your condition, you can fix it before things go south. In our experience, usually, it’s the business administration part that takes a toll on dentists.

Managing a dental practice is difficult enough already, and the recent pandemic has exacerbated the difficulties even more.

A routine of repetition is the cause of burnout in multiple cases. Humans need novelty to keep them interested and engaged, and as dentists, novelty in practice is hard to come by. So, what’s the solution? Learning new things or skills, attending conferences, even expanding your business practice with the help of loans and borrowings (It’s not always bad! read here) can all rekindle your spark in you. Consider signing up with your local business and networking club, which is another excellent way to meet and learn from like-minded people.
