RiskBites: Independent practice – Who’s driving the bus?

Dental Therapists, Dental Hygienist and Oral Health Therapists continue to receive the highest proportion of complaints related to scope of practice which is likely a reflection of how these roles have evolved over time, often leading to confusion, misunderstanding or lack of awareness.In this episode of RiskBites, Dr Annalene Weston speaks with Mrs Kristin Trafford-Wiezel, a case manager at Dental Protection and OHT, about the changes that have shaped these roles, what they mean for the profession today, and how the guidelines and principles of scope and independent practice apply across all divisions of dentistry.Kristin also shares a case featured in our 2024 Sliding Doors webinar: Who’s Driving the Bus?
