The Dentist Well-Being Committee, a standing committee of the Maryland State Dental Association, offers confidential support and assistance to dentists and their families who may be facing personal problems such as stress, addiction, depression, and medical conditions. With a focus on providing advocacy and resources, the Committee helps dentists navigate through challenges and improve their overall well-being.
Through treatment agreements and strict confidentiality, the Committee offers dentists a non-disciplinary avenue to seek appropriate help, providing written and verbal support when needed, including advocacy with licensure issues and engagement with various institutions. Committed to increasing awareness and collaboration, the Committee also actively participates in the National Council of Dentist Health Programs, tailoring education and resources to address substance use disorders and the unique needs of dentist health programs.
