Burnout?
Having a Type A personality is common among dental professionals. We work in small spaces with a focus, precision and detail that is quite remarkable. We take pride in what we do, and we give our all—day in and day out. We are highly motivated and set high expectations. Those of us in dentistry have a deep, dark struggle with seeing our failures as a learning experience. Carolyn Gregoire, Senior Health + Science Writer at Huffington Post, reports on new findings which suggest having a Type A personality is very taxing on our health and well-being and puts into words what we already know to be true: the pressure to be perfect is exhausting!
