Stress factors and coping strategies in the dental profession.
Stress is inherent in dental practice. Identifying stressful factors is the first step toward coping with the insidious nature of stress, as preventive measures can then be efficiently established. While numerous studies have been conducted, none of them has identified a specific stress factor that is common to all practitioners, which demonstrates the multifactorial and multidimensional aspects of dental stress.
