Summary
In this podcast episode, Dr Colm Harney from Dental Protection and Dr. Jacinta Vu, Oral Medicine Specialist discuss the importance of trauma-informed dental care, particularly for patients who have experienced domestic violence. They explore how dental practitioners can create a safe and empowering environment for their patients, the significance of understanding trauma and its effects, and the role of empathy in building trust. Dr. Vu shares insights from her work with Healing Smiles, a charity providing dental services to survivors of domestic violence and emphasizes the need for dentists to be aware of the unique challenges faced by these patients. The conversation also touches on the importance of volunteering in the dental community and the positive impact it can have on both practitioners and patients.
