SVT has previously reported on the survey that the union Vision carried out earlier, it shows that many dental nurses regret their choice of profession.

The greatest dissatisfaction is found in the Jämtland Härjedalen region.

But it is not only difficult to recruit dental nurses, but also other functions.

Need to move resources

- Now we need to move resources or ask the patients to come to another clinic.

To answer completely honestly, during a period there were twelve dentists who either resigned, changed units or retired, says Stefan Stjernström.

The clinics hit hardest are the one in Åre and the one on Frösön.

In total, there are 15 clinics in the region plus a dental emergency which is located on Campus. 

In the clip above, Stefan Stjernström talks about how they plan to resolve the situation.
