Navigating the Mentorship Maze in Dentistry with Sten

Join us for the latest episode of Toolbox Tuesday, featuring the third installment of our special series with the insightful and experienced Sten.

Stem candidly shares his personal journey from a solo dental practitioner to a pivotal figure in group practice, exploring how his views on mentorship have evolved over time.

Stem also highlights his unique approach to mentorship—balancing structured guidance with fostering independence among his associate doctors. Hear about the importance of pushing beyond comfort zones, defining true emergencies, and cultivating the confidence to handle complex cases.

Whether you're a dental professional looking to refine your skills, a mentor seeking to enhance your approach, or just curious about the intricate dynamics of mentorship, this episode is packed with invaluable insights. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of how strategic mentorship can redefine your career and propel you toward success. Don't miss out on this enlightening conversation!

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
