Mental Health Awareness Week

At Dental Training Ltd, we believe that your mental wellbeing is just as important as your education and career. As part of Mental Health Awareness Week, we want to take a moment to remind every dental nurse student — past, present, and future — that you are never alone.


The Pressure Is Real — And So Is Our Support


Training to become a dental nurse is a big commitment. Between coursework, placements, exams, and life outside your studies, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. And while it's common to power through and stay focused on the goal, it’s just as important to pause, check in with yourself, and prioritise your own wellbeing.

Stress, anxiety, self-doubt, and burnout are more common than you might think — especially in healthcare training. The good news? Support is always available.


Let’s Talk About It


If you ever feel like you’re struggling, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. Whether it's study-related stress, personal challenges, or just needing someone to talk to — we’re here to help, not judge. Sometimes a quick message or call is all it takes to lift a weight off your shoulders.


If you need professional help beyond our team, there are some amazing resources ready to support you:


  • NHS Every Mind Matters: Click here

  • Samaritans (24/7): Call 116 123 or visit samaritans.org

  • Mind UK: For mental health advice and services – mind.org.uk

  • Shout Text Line: Text SHOUT to 85258 for free, confidential support

You Come First


Remember: taking care of your mental health is not a weakness — it’s a strength. Being kind to yourself allows you to show up better for your learning, your patients, and your future career.


So this week (and every week), take five minutes for yourself. Breathe. Check in. Talk to someone. And know that you are supported, valued, and never on your own.

From all of us at Dental Training Ltd — we're with you every step of the way. 💜
