  • RiskBites - Perfectly, imperfect

    RiskBites - Perfectly, imperfect
    Dec 7 2025
    As we move into the festive season and the final days of 2025, many of us naturally pause for reflection, looking back, looking inward, and looking ahead.

    For our last Risk Bites episode of the year, we wanted to close not with something heavy, but with something uplifting. So, in this episode, Dr Annalene Weston and Mrs Anita Kemp explore the idea of perfection, both the pursuit of aesthetic perfection and the quieter tyranny of personal perfectionism that shapes so much of our behaviour.

    Listen in as Annalene poses a powerful question: What would happen if we stopped striving to be perfect and instead allowed ourselves to aim for personal excellence?

    Could this shift our mindset and allow us to be kinder to ourselves, something we all deeply deserve?

    Nov 23 2025
    In this episode of RiskMatters, Senior Dentolegal consultant, Dr Annalene Weston sits down with Dr Saskia Salvestro to explore medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ).

    Saskia is a highly regarded dental practitioner, recognised for her expertise in contemporary dentistry and her commitment to advancing the profession. Earlier this year, she contributed an exceptional article on MRONJ to our Young Dental Practitioner publication. The insights were simply too valuable to leave on the page, prompting Annalene to bring the conversation to a wider audience through this podcast.

    Tune in as Annalene and Saskia revisit MRONJ: what it is, why it occurs, and the key warning signs and considerations for clinicians when assessing patients in practice.
