5 minutes with Dr Rada Haddadin

What three words best describe you?

Persistent hard worker.

If you weren’t in the dentistry field, what would you do for a living? I enjoyed the experience of building our house, so I feel like architecture is something I would enjoy.

What do you enjoy doing in your spare time?

If I have any spare time, I like catching up with friends and I enjoy cooking.

Is there anything people might be surprised to learn about you?

I love cake decorating. I was doing cakes for a while for my daughter who is allergic to dairy, so I couldn’t order cakes for her. My friends say I should start a business, although the cakes take lots of time and being a perfectionist, it takes a lot of energy to make the perfect cake from scratch. When I have time, it is something I enjoy.

Course Outline

Dentists and their staff can be faced with challenges that upset the usual routine and smooth running of a dental practice. Most of these are emergencies of some kind or they may be things that do not go to plan! Three such unexpected, but common, things are when a patient calls after suffering trauma to the mouth and teeth, your best efforts to achieve good local anaesthetic are not working (especially for a patient with pain) and yesterday’s patient calls because they still have pain after your treatment. These problems occur in all dental practices, but they may be harder to manage in a rural practice because there is no option to refer to a specialist. This course will use these difficult situations as a basis to discuss and provide guidelines and predictable methods for their management. Some new local anaesthetic techniques will also be discussed along with findings from the work of the presenter’s research teams.
