To counter these “human factor” issues, Renouard recommends using techniques that have been developed for the airline industry to address safety problems: so-called “crew resource management.” The concept of the “sterile cockpit” where all extraneous activity is banned during high-risk periods, such as take-off and landing, can be transferred to the dental implantology setting for use during critical periods of treatment provision. Strict division of responsibilities between team members also reduces stress and “information overload.” Additionally, checklists can be very useful in concentrating attention on critical steps, especially in highly procedural tasks such as those seen in medicine and dentistry. This approach has also been promoted by other authors (Gawande, 2009; Pinsky et al, 2010). Here the SAC classification can be used as a checklist to ensure that all factors relevant to the patient’s presentation are assessed and incorporated into treatment plans.
