Regulate to Elevate: Strategies to Thrive in Dentistry

Shivani Barto, DDS
7 – 8:30 p.m. via Zoom
1.5 CE credits

Dentistry demands precision, endurance, and sustained focus, yet many clinicians operate in a constant state of stress while working in physically compromising positions. Over time, this combination contributes to pain, fatigue, and decreased clinical performance. This interactive session blends education with guided movement to bridge the gap between nervous system regulation and clinical ergonomics. Participants will learn how to improve nervous system dysregulation and ergonomics as a foundation for clinical excellence, leadership, and longevity. Attendees will leave with immediately applicable tools to improve nervous system regulation, posture, and efficiency in practice.

Learning objectives:

• Recognize the relationship between nervous system dysregulation, posture, and chronic pain patterns in dentistry.
• Apply targeted movement, yoga, and breathwork strategies to improve posture, reduce tension, and enhance clinical endurance.
• Implement real-time regulation techniques to support focus, efficiency, and physical comfort during the workday.
