Evaluation of Occupational Burnout and Stress Among Dentists in Covid-19 Pandemic

The aim of this study was to evaluate the factors affecting the ability and willingness of dentists to work during the COVID-19 pandemic and the effect of this situation on occupational burnout. A 51-question survey, including demographic and pandemic questions and the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), was used as a data collection method and administered to dentists in Turkey via the internet in two stages. A link to the survey (onlineanketler.com) was sent to the participants by e-mail or social media (WhatsApp©). A total of 706 participants were included in the study. The second stage of the survey only applied to dentists who are assigned within the scope of COVID-19 measures in Turkey.
